Water

Coastal marine water at the mouth of Canale Logonovo. The water body is classified as an alluvial plain with high stability. The bathing area extends 0.183 km. The Canale Logonovo experiences continuous flow inversions and collects drainage water from agricultural lands via land reclamation canals.

Location

Comacchio, Ferrara Province, Emilia-Romagna region. The bathing area is located at the mouth of Canale Logonovo, between Porto Canale di Porto Garibaldi to the north and Canale Bellocchio to the south.

Water Quality

Water quality classification: Excellent (reference years 2015–2018). Escherichia coli at 90th percentile: 26 CFU/100 ml; at 95th percentile: 32 CFU/100 ml. Intestinal enterococci at 90th percentile: 17 CFU/100 ml; at 95th percentile: 19 CFU/100 ml. No point source discharges of urban origin discharge into Canale Logonovo. No short-duration pollution events were recorded during bathing seasons 2015–2018.

Risks

The mouth of Canale Logonovo is subject to continuous sand extraction to prevent silting and closure. Macroalgae proliferation of Ulva genus was recorded in July–August 2018 in the centre-northern coastal section, causing modifications to water-use enjoyment during biomass accumulation phases. Potential for eutrophication exists due to agricultural drainage water collection, although no cyanobacterial eutrophic phenomena have been reported. No phytoplankton bloom events or toxic effects were recorded during 2015–2018.
