Popis:	Water exchange is an important behavior to maintain water quality in enclosed coastal seas. Breakwaters located at the bay entrance have a role to protect the area from natural disaster such as tsunami waves or storm surges. However, water quality deterioration is worried about due to the decreasing of the entrance crose-sectional area.In the paper, the authors investigate the technique of water exchange enhancement by the layout of the breakwaters and study the mechanism of water exchange. It concludes that the water exchange is promoted by the horizontal circulation which is caused by vorticity generated at the entrance of the bay
