Historical changes of bottom topography and tidal amplitude in the Ria de Aveiro, Portugal: trends for future evolution

The natural evolution of the estuary-coastal lagoon system of the Ria de Aveiro, Portugal, was halted in 1808 by the construction of a new inlet/outlet channel through the sand spit which isolates it from the Atlantic Ocean.
