Morphodynamics of intertidal sand bars: field studies in the northern Adriatic, NE Italy

Abstract : Swash bars onshore migration have been measured on intertidal area of two microtidal beaches of Northern Adriatic during very low wave energy conditions. Bed microtopography was performed at every low tides, and migration of features followed by rods in a cross-shore array. Very small swash bars (A<0.07m, 2
