Three zones are differentiated according to the bedform types and the hidrodynamic processes: a) a northern, shallow submarine zone at 30 m depth situated between ConiI and Barbate (Barbate ridge), where sand waves migrate towards the SE; b) a southern zone southward of the Barbate ridge, where sand waves migrate towards the NW, and c) the infralittoral-inner shelf between Coni! and Cadiz Bay, where sand waves migrate towards the SE and also are influenced by the waves actionspaAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/HoloceneSand wavesGulf of CadizContinental shelfHidrodynamicsjournal articleopen access
