Abstract
Saltwater intrusion (SWI) is a natural worldwide environmental issue that negatively affects coastal groundwater reservoirs. The consequences of
saltwater intrusion are further intensified due to climate change and increasing demand for groundwater.This thesis aimed to assess the effects of sea level rise and variable freshwater head boundary conditions on saltwater intrusion, using laboratory and numerical modeling techniques. It sought to inspect the behavior of saltwater intrusion under different cutoff wall inclination angles and depths, in
both transient and steady-state conditions. Considering common aquifer
heterogeneity. The effectiveness of mixed physical barriers (MPBs) and their
response to structural changes influenced by the presence of aquifer
stratification was investigated, and the performance of MPBs was compared to
that of single physical barriers. Laboratory experiments and numerical
SEAWAT models were used to analyze the saltwater intrusion behavior before
and after the installation of the physical barriers.
