Abstract
A new seaport for container transhipment named JadeWeserPort will be built near Wilhelmshaven in the Jade Bay, which belongs to the Jade-Weser Estuary (German Bight). As a basis for planning and environmental impact assessment, respectively, the changes induced by the port in the abiotic characteristics of the Jade Bay were investigated extensively using results from in-situ measurements and 2D/3D UnTRIM-SediMorph numerical model simulations. Essential impacts of the port on the tidal and morphological characteristics of the Jade Bay could be identified.
