Bonfiglio, B., Cresswell, D., Fa, D., Finlayson, G., Tovell, C. and Arbukle, J. (2013) Gibraltar harbour. In: ICE Coasts, Marine Structures and Breakwaters 2013, 18-20 September 2013, Edinburgh, UK.

Abstract

This paper presents a factual record of the history of Gibraltar Harbour and how it has developed
since the first mole structure was constructed in the early 14th Century. The paper will also show how
breakwater and reclamation works have reshaped Gibraltar’s footprint and will draw upon hydraulic
model results to show how developments within the harbour basin and in the Bay of Gibraltar have
significantly affected the wave climate in the harbour and the resulting impact on the existing harbour
structures and sea defences.
