A photographic mosaic of a window from a image take by HVR-1 of the SPOT satellite over the Cartagena region on the 27/03/1986 is analized with a special treatment in order to observe suspended surface sediments (turbidity). The specular reflection permitted the observation of different wave patterns; the turbidity density authorised establish the influence and circulation of the Canal del Dique waters within the Cartagena Bay. Also served to detect severe erosion sectors as follows: The coast of Island and the western beaches of Manzanillo Island. Low turbidities in Ensenada de Codego suggests a natural morphological protection for the fresh waters of this inlet and probable local upwelling southeast of Tierra Bomba Island.
