Abstract

The Cananéia-Iguape lagoonal complex is characterized by a continuous siltation, which is shown by sedimentary islands and sand spits frequently found within the lagoonal area. Two sets of arrial photos, onde of 1962 and another of 1973, and a nautical chart of the Brazilian Navy have been used to evaluate the morphological changes of those sedimentary features through the time. A close relationship between their orientation and local hydrodynamic processes has been observed in the "mas de Cubatão" and "mar Pequeno" areas.
