Resumo

Este estudo tem como objetivo determinar a influência de correntes de retorno fixas na contaminação de praias urbanas por resíduos sólidos. Quatro áreas ao longo da praia foram selecionadas com base na presença ou ausência de correntes de retorno. Adotou-se um critério para identificação de resíduos maiores que 3 cm, independentemente da composição. O mecanismo de circulação costeira na Praia de Boa Viagem influenciou fortemente o padrão de distribuição de resíduos sólidos na área de estudo. Maiores quantidades desses resíduos foram observadas ao norte das correntes de retorno. Os resultados mostraram que as correntes longitudinais, a força do vento e a direção do vento influenciaram fortemente o padrão de deposição de resíduos sólidos na Praia de Boa Viagem.
