Tidal channels comprise a peculiar and dynamic environment. This paper aims to recognize the sedimentary distribution and composition of a tidal channel located in a semi-arid climate area in order to understand the sedimentary dynamics of the region.This region has economic and environmental importance considering that several activities are developed in the area such as; salt industry and aquaculture with shr...
The Icapuí coastal plain is composed by overlapping sea terraces, coastal strands, lagoons and wind deposits, bordered in the south by the cliffs of Barreiras Formation, and is morphologically cut by tidal channels where is located the Barra Grande Port.

A planície costeira de Icapuí é composta pela sobreposição de terraços marinhos, cordões litorâneos, lagunas e depósitos eólicos, limitados a sul por uma linha de falésias da Formação Barreiras e cortado, morfologicamente, por canais de maré, situado o Porto da Barra Grande. No geral, a região apresenta caráter regressivo durante o Holoceno Superior, contudo as planícies e os canais de maré podem ser formados e...
