Abstract

This contribution analyses the hydro-morphological effects induced by low crested structures confined by lateral groynes at Igea Marina beach, Northern Adriatic Sea, Italy. The site has been monitored since the works started for these last ten years. Results from bathymetric surveys, sediment samplings, video monitoring and numerical modelling are presented and discussed.
