Sedimentación intermareal en la bahía de San Sebastián, Tierra de Fuego, Argentina

Abstract

[ES] La Bahía de San Sebastián se encuentra situada al NE de la Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego, en la costa atlántica. Tiene forma semicircular con dimensiones de unos 55 km de N a S y de unos 40 de E a W; el rango mareal oscila entre 3,2 y 10,5 m. Existen dos áreas de sedimentación características muy diferentes: la Península del Parámo, formada por playas de gravas y la bahía, propiamente dicha, cuya zona intermareal tiene una anchura de 7 a 10 km durante la marea baja equinoccial, en la que se pueden diferenciar las siguientes áreas de sedimentación: llanuras mareales fangosas; llanura de cheniers con llanura fangosa; playa de arenagrava y llanura mareal mixta; costa acantilada sin sedimentación apreciable y complejo playa-lagoon. El viento del W, que supera los 60 km más de 200 días al año es otro factor dominante en los procesos de sedimentación del área, sobre todo en su parte más alta.

[EN] The Bay of San Sebastian is part of the NE atlantic coast of Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. It is a semicircular embayment 55 km long and 40 km wide. Tidal range varies from 3,2 to 10,5 m. There are two diferent environments: The Península del Páramo, formed by gravel beaches and the Bay S.S., with intertidal flats up to 10 km wide and the following subenvironments: muddy tidal flats, chenier plain, gravel beaches, rocky cliffs and a barrier beach-lagoon complex. The wind blows from the W for more than 200 days per year with speeds in excess of 60 km/h, and controls the sedimentation in the upper part of the flats.
