Abstract

The mesotidal Guadiana River Estuary, and all the estuaries located along the Huelva Coast present ebb tidal deltas infront of their mouth, that are unexplainly curved to west; in the same way, authors have observed turbidity plumes west directed. At this moment anybody do not have explain for the origin of the littoral current that product this curve sense. This paper gives data that certify a tidal origin for these currents, explaying the observed phenomena by a interactive model of the tidal currents in the open coast with the tidal currents comming out from the estuary mouth
