CNR - CSIC Project: Integrated sedimentological-geomorphological approach to monitor coastal changes

Programme: Agreement for Bilateral Scientific and Technological Cooperation between CNR and CSI
Project title: Integrated sedimentological-geomorphological approach to monitor coastal changes. Comparison between two case studies: the Barcelona littoral and the Venice area.
Summary: The project is mainly aimed at analysing and comparing the geomorphological and sedimentological modifications occurred in the last century in the Venice and Barcelona littorals and at recognizing the dynamic processes, both natural and human-induced, responsible for these changes. Multidisciplinary investigations allow the identification of the cause and effects relations between environmental variations and coastal evolution.
