abstract:
The sandy shore comprised between Alghero and Fertilia (Alghero Gulf, NW-Sardinia) has been monitored through satellite and aerial images from 1977 to 2009 and uploaded in ARCGIS system. Results indicate that the area is suffering a severe erosion mainly due to the building of marina docks and breakwaters.
