Características de la llanura intermareal asociada al canal de Mira (dominio interno del complejo isla-barrera de Aveiro, Portugal)

The Mira channel, located in the inner domain of the Aveiro barrier-island complex, is subdivided in three sections: head, intermediate and mouth, according to their morphological and sedimentary features. Their study shows the zonation of the associated intertidal flat in five zones: sand flat, lower mud flat, mixed flat, upper mud flat and marsh, related to different tidal levels
