Amapas coast estuaries, are strongly influenced by Amazon River discharge and large tidal amplitude providing an unique and extremely dynamic environment. Remote sensing and hydroacoustic mapping were used for morphological and hydrodynamic ch aracte rization of the Cunani river estuary. The data we...
