“…Culverts are structurally divided into three basic types, as shown in Figure 1. With reference to seawater renewal, researchers emphasize the inadequately low amplitude of tidal oscillations in the sea between Korea and Japan, and shift their attention to the use of culverts embedded in breakwaters, while highlighting wave energy as the dominant generator of circulation through culverts [7][8][9]. Therefore, they propose a culvert design that uses the incoming wave energy to ensure faster seawater renewal in semi-enclosed basins.…”

The quality of seawater in enclosed water basins can be negatively affected by inadequate exchange of seawater. Various culverts (pipe culverts, box culverts, and duct culverts) are presented in the paper as an efficient solution for preventing stagnation of seawater. In addition to positive influence of culvert-induced higher circulation of seawater in the basin, the wave energy penetrating during stormy weather into the protected area via culverts may be a limiting factor. Basic culvert shaping recommendations, relying on the study of previous research and structural solutions for culverts used on Croatian coast, are also presented in the paper.
