heal.abstract	The wave transmission over submerged breakwaters is investigated using existing formulae and wave models. The objective is to assess their performance and pinpoint research paths for their improvement. Application was made on a case study with two submerged detached breakwaters. It was found that some of the recent relations give satisfactory results of the transmission coefficient, while the predictability of the models tested depends on the wave breaking formulation assumed. In general, wave breaking and porosity of the structure are the most crucial factors that need further study for the improvement of the prediction of wave transmission over submerged breakwaters.
