The present paper deals with the determination of longshore sediment transport rate. Specifically, case study of Saline Joniche (Reggio Calabria, Italy, is discussed. This case is of interest because, in this location, an artificial basin was built in the 70’s. After few years, port entrance experienced total obstruction by sand. Actually, the area is abandoned and several projects have been proposed for revitalising port activities. This paper discusses a method for estimating the longshore sediment transport rate at Saline Joniche and complements previous methodology.

AbstractThe lacustrine Itapema Formation in the Santos Basin locally comprises 102 m thick clinoforms identified seismically and corroborated by several well penetrations. Individual clinoforms, as proven by well penetrations, are composed of 102 m thick successions of basinward-dipping molluscan grainstones and rudstones. Manual dip picking of borehole images shows upward-increasing dips consistent with seismic geometries and a predominance of longshore sediment transport. Clinoforms are bound at their top and base by strata with significantly lower dips recognizable on both seismic and borehole images. Elevated gamma-ray log responses together with sidewall core samples indicate that these intervals correspond to more argillaceous facies which are interpreted as lake flooding events. While the existence of bona fide clinoforms is demonstrated by a range of subsurface data, their precise origin remains enigmatic. The majority of the bivalve genera that make up the grain-supported carbonates appear to be infaunal or semi-infaunal. As such the clinoforms represent large bars produced through the re-working of bivalves from lower-energy depositional environments by shore-parallel currents.
