Short summary
Sandy beaches are a common landscape feature of the Italian Adriatic coast. From an economic and touristic point of view, the unprotected beach of Senigallia is an important area, frequently monitored in the last decades. The annual evolution of the submerged bars can be related to the climate: waves from the NNE/ESE, characterized by larger/smaller steepness and relative height, induce seaward/shoreward bar migration and bar smoothing/steepening.
