The Mouth of the Amazon River, considered to be the largest river on Earth, is a geomorphological macro-frontier between two coastal blocks : the Guiana Shield coastal plain (from Amapa to Venezuela) and the North Brazil block (Pará/Maranhão). It also constitutes a vast geological domain that links the Amapa Platform, the Marajo Basin and the Pará/...
The Mouth of the Amazon River, considered to be the largest river on Earth, is a geomorphological macro-frontier between two coastal blocks : the Guiana Shield coastal fringe (from Amapa to Venezuela) and the Para/Maranhao block (North Brazil). It also constitutes a vast geological domain that links the Amapa Platform, the Marajo Basin and the Para...
T
he digital videography has been used worlwide since the 80 ́s; in Brazil since the 90 ́s and recently in Amapá
state, north of Brazil. It is the main result of a bilateral cooperation between LRT (Laboratoire Regional Télédétection) of IRD (Institute Regional pour le Development), ex-ORSTOM-Cayenne and IEPA (Instituto de Pesquisas Científicas e T...

Les changements &tiers en Guyane sont tr&s dynamiques et ceux-ci ont dtd dvalub B partir de diffdrentes donn6es utilisant plusieurs techniques (comparaison de cartes historiques, comparaison des cartes topographiques, photo-interpr6tation). La prdcision de ces mesures est variable: dans beaucoup de cas il s'agît plutôt d'estimations, dtant donn6 la...
The French Guiana coast (320 km) is subjected to intense morphological changes linked to the fate of the wide Amazon input of particulates in the Tropical Westem Atlantic. Mudbanks, mudflats, modern cheniers and mangroves' evolution are under the strong influence of this dispersion system. The goal of the "Coastal Environrnent Programm" of ORSTOM C...
Computer data anaIysis of remote sensing optical imagery is used, since several years, to monitor coastal morphosedimentary changes in French Guiana ("Coastal Environment Programm", ORSTOM Cayenne). The muItitemporal comparison of LANSAT MSS (1976), SPOT-1 (1986) and LANDSAT TM (1988) allowed us to quantify average yearly accretion and erosion rate...
