Abstract:
Research on modern marine and estuarine sediments: physical properties of sediments (radiography, densitometry, grain size analysis, specific surface); sedimentary dynamics (sediment fluxes in estuaries, sediment accumulation in tidally influenced areas; relationships among sediments, sedimentation and biochemical processes; remote sensing of sediment types and structures.
