Hydrology
Tide:
The tide in this area is of irregular half-day type. Its (HO1+HK1)/HM2=0.53.

Wave
The port is under the protection of the North Great Breakwater and the wave influnce is out of consideration.
Ocean Current
The curent in the port water area is of back-and-forth mode. The current direction in the port parallels the port channel axis and the speed is faster when the tide rises.
Ocean Ice
In winter the port water area ices to some extent. The icing begins in the last ten days of December and ends in the last ten days of february within a period of 60 days. According to the statistics of years,the annual heavy icing time is of 10 days at average. Normally the ocean ice doesn’t much affect the port operation and shipps sailling.
Silt Deposit
Since the Tianjin Port has been built,the circling silt deposit in the port has always been focused by the common. Through researching and construction in tens of years, the slugde-reducing project has reached to a good result. The ratio of annual out-put and sludge excavation (cbm/out-put ton) in the 90s has come down to 0.08-0.09 which is lower than the Port of rotterdam in Holland whose ratio in the 80s was 0.115.
The fresh researches have proved that the Tianjin Port belongs to the kinds of slight-circling-silt port. The circling-silting-up question is no-longer an element affecting the development of the port. Oppositely, the millions of cubic metres of silt annually have become the important resources in the land extending at the port. It’s surely expected that along with the improvement to the conditions on port silting-up and the adoptions of workable measures to harness the silting, the port silt deposit situation will turn better.
Construction Geology
The exploration shows that the soil layers are distributed regularly in the area of Tianjin Port and maily lay in three sections from the top to bottom. The first is the artificial alluviation by the dredgings. The second layer is the marine deposit and silt clay mixed with shells.The third layer is from the Haihe River mouth delta deposit consisting of soil powder,clay powder, soil powder with fine sand and powder clay or powder soil mixed with fine sand.
Earthquake
According to the State Construction Design on Anti-seism Standards (GB50011-2001, the location ot the Port Project designed to endure the earthquake intensity up to 7 magnitude. The designed basic ratio on seism plus velocity is 0.15g..
