Abstract(s)

Although the mudflats are relatively plain, they are a succession of mud ripples convex and concave sections. Some systems have high nutrient concentrations in the water column(Lagoon of Venice and North Europe coastal zones. But other systems have low nutrient concentrations in the water column(Ria Formosa). Ulvales dynamics is probably controlled by two key moments:1) Bloom beginning and 2) Bloom decaying.
