Present dynamics of the Guadiana estuary
Estuaries offer natural protection from energetic ocean waves, and have been used as natural harbour and inland waterways since the beginning of civilisation.Nowadays, most of the largest cities in the world are located on estuaries that must cope with increasing economic and industrial developments.These sheltered coastal areas are also one of the ...

Guadiana River Estuary. Investigating the past, present and future
Estuaries are some of the most dynamic and complex environments in the world. The places where rivers meet the sea are subject to cycles of constant change – from the waves and currents that move particles of sand and mud every second, to the daily ebb and flow of the tides and the more dramatic effects of periodic floods, droughts and storms.
