The impact of man on the morphodynamics of the Huelva coast (SW Spain)

The Huelva coast is composed by large sandy beaches and spits, only interrupted by the presence of the estuarine mouths of the Guadiana, Piedras, Tinto-Odiel and Guadalquivir which are in an advanced state of sediment infilling. The morphology and processes of the Huelva coast are mainly linked to t...
