| Popis: | Sampit Bay is one of many main gates to enter the Central Kalimantan Province, because there is Mentaya River Mouth as an access to the Sampit Harbour as a main port at its province. Until now, the Sampit Bay only used as anchored for big ships waiting turn to enter Sampit Port. The methods used are coastal characteristic mapping, seafloor surficial sediment sampling, grain size analyses, echosounding, and current measurement. Sampit bay has sandy coast, sand of sea floor surficial sediment, and gradation of sea floor morphology which is suitable for sea port location. On the other hand, the velocity of the surface and midle current in the bay ranging between 0.1-0.3 m/second which is dominated by south east direction. The mentioned velocity is under threshold for safety ship anchoraged. Beside that, most of the bay open to the wind from west and south west facing Java Sea, where the velocity ranging from 5-13 m/second which is included into weak catagories. Location is recommended to be sea port candidate in the south of Ujung Pandaran. |
