Description :
The main features and the evolution of the apical part of the River Ombrone delta have been analysed from a morphological and sedimentological viewpoint, using cartographic data, aerial photographs and field evidence. The evolution occurred during three thousand years B.P. and the sedimentary dynamics have been outlined as well : the River Ombrone delta is a cuspate wave dominated delta, with a single distributary channel and two asymmetrical wings, and is a typical feature of the Tyrrhenian margin. The progradation is function of both factors and cannot be easily quantified. - (NF)
