The excessive pumping of groundwater, associated with the lack of natural recharge, has exacerbated the SWI problem in arid and semi-arid regions. Therefore, appropriate management strategies should be implemented in coastal aquifers to control the impacts of SWI problems, considering acceptable limits of economic and environmental costs. The management of coastal aquifers involves the identification of an acceptable ultimate landward extent of the saline water body and the calculation of the amount of seaward discharge of freshwater that is necessary to keep the saline\u2013freshwater interface in a seacoast position. This paper presents a comprehensive review of available hydraulic and physical management strategies that can be used to reduce and control SWI in coastal aquifers. Advantages and disadvantages of the different approaches are presented and discussed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/w11122467","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,25]],"date-time":"2019-11-25T03:10:00Z","timestamp":1574651400000},"page":"2467","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":202,"title":["Management of Seawater Intrusion in Coastal Aquifers: A Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5341-355X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammed S.","family":"Hussain","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Civil Engineering Department, College of Engineering, University of Duhok, 1006 AJ Duhok, Kurdistan Region-Iraq"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3894-6726","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hany F.","family":"Abd-Elhamid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Water and Water Structures Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Zagazig University, Zagazig P.O.
