Projects - MURANO – Saltpan Walls of Aveiro Lagoon
  • Evaluate the current situation of the Aveiro saltpans and define a study area;
  • Establish relations between the lagoon hydrodynamics, sediment transport and the erosion of saltpan walls;
  • Evaluate the impact of saltpan degradation on the lagoon dynamics;
  • Contribute to the understanding of cohesive sediment transport and its effects on the morphological evolution of the study area;
  • Evaluate the behaviour of traditional walls and propose new solutions.
