Transition estuary (Sorkhroud, Larim, Nekaroud Rivers)
Therefore as final conclusion we showed that
sediments size distribution and morphodynamic
formation is a good indicator for estuary classification
in the study area. Also rapid sea level changing of
Caspian Sea has a direct influence on rivers mouth
deformation and the tendency of changeable events
associated to estuary depend on sea and river forces
and type of beach zone from geometry of beach
structure point of view.
