Resumen
A preliminary survey of bottom sediment transport within the inner continental shelf in the vicinity of Maricás islands, Rio de Janeiro, was carried out through shortterm current and wave measurements. Results indicate that transport is generally extremely small under good weather conditions. Based on finer sediment size eastward of Maricás islands it is suggested that transport occurs from west to east under storm condition when wind blows from SW and wave activity is high.
