“…The waves in the area showed a clear predominance of the directions from the NE to the ESE (Figure 8), which generated currents with both N and W components. The N component is explained by the influence of the cape and the W component by the waves themselves, which is consistent with what was observed by the authors of Reference [24]. The influence of the Cape of Cullera caused the waves in the northern area to be directed toward the coast, generating a current toward the south and causing a seaward current toward the middle of San Antonio beach, which coincided with the point in Figure 7 where an increase in the size of the sediment can be seen.…”

“…This longitudinal sedimentary transport dynamic is characterized, as in the rest of the gulf, by the existence of a coastal drift from north to south [23]. The sedimentary supply that reaches the studied coast comes from the fluvial contributions of the rivers that predominate in this sector: (i) The River Túria, which affects the beaches to the north of the Cape of Cullera, and which contributes sand in strong storms to the study beaches by circumventing the Cape; and (ii) the River Júcar, which covers the rest of the beaches [24]. Geologically, the area is divided into two zones.…”

“…En el contexto de bioecosistemas costeros se destacan las zonas estuarinas como ambientes de transición entre océanos y continentes, especialmente aquellos estuarios localizados en los trópicos, que se encuentran entre los más fértiles y productivos (Bonilla, Senior, Bugden, Zafiriou & Jones, 1993;Secretaría de la Convención Ramsar, 2006). Es acá en donde las plumas estuarinas juegan un papel importante en varios aspectos socio-económicos y ambientales en sus áreas de influencia ya que representan una fuente importante de nutrientes para las aguas costeras, con los consiguientes efectos en la red trófica y en las pesquerías (Mösso et al 2003).…”

“…Actualmente la cuenca de este golfo es objetivo de varios proyectos de desarrollo que pretenden llevarse a cabo en la zona, por lo que para la gestión costera es de particular interés tener las herramientas adecuadas para monitorear y predecir la dinámica de las plumas con el fin de evaluar su influencia a escalas local y regional (Dalsgaard et al, 2003;Mösso et al, 2003;Spongberg, 2004;Ferdelman et al, 2006;Silva & Acuña-González, 2006).…”

“…Los resultados correspondientes a la caracterización bacteriológica del agua de mar se presentan en la tabla 1, con los valores máximos para los diferentes parámetros analizados. Una explicación más amplia de las campañas realizadas ha sido documentada en diferentes estudios llevados a cabo en la zona [3,4,5,6,7,8] Las concentraciones de bacterias coliformes fecales (CF), totales (CT) y enterococos (E) fueron comparados con el valor establecido por la Directiva Europea para aguas de baño que se encontraba vigente durante las campañas (Directiva de Consejo 76/160/CEE y el Real Decreto 734/1988) [9]. Los resultados se compararon con el valor obligatorio y guía que establece esta Directiva para aguas de baño (tabla 2).…”
