Abstract
One of the problems around estuaries with the wave-dominated combination of a small tidal range and low river discharges in the dry season was the mouth closed by a sand barrier. Longshore sediment flows silted up the river mouth while river flows were insufficiently large for flushing sand barriers. When the wet season started, river discharge suddenly enlarged. Discharge can’t flow through the river mouth due to being hindered by the sand barrier. The consequence was that the hinterlands were inundated. Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA) is located in a coastal area of Kulon Progo regency, between two river mouths (Bogowonto river and Serang River). The two rivers have unstable river mouths. The double Jetty had been built at the Bogowonto river, but its condition was damaged. Meanwhile, the breakwater was constructed at the river mouth Serang and called Tanjung Adikarto. Double Jetties will be built to stabilize the Bogowonto river mouth. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the length of the Jetty to be more effective in stabilizing the Bogowonto river mouth. Therefore, so that more easily opened by river flow and does not cause excessive erosion on the one side of the Jetty.
