SCANNONE DI GORO

The Goro Scannone is one of the regions most representative morphologies of deltitizie. It is in fact an exemplary coastal arrow, that is, along arched shoreline that has increased to the southwest to the right of the mouths of the Po of Goro. La presence of a coastal arrow at this mouth is documented since the nineteenth century, with positions that change in relation to the advance towards the sea of the lobe of the lobo of the dethem, as documented in extremely detail by the historical aerial maps and photos. Evidence of these shipwrecks also emerges from the waters of the Gorino Valley, forming elongated salt marshes parallel to the present Scannone, covered by dense reed populations and specialized vegetation (salicorneti, brackish meadows, tifeti foiled). Between the 1930s and 1950s the current Scannone was fragmented into two parts: the Scanno peninsula of Goro and the island called Scanno Piallazza; these two elements, for the continuous sand inputs, ended up welding and then the Scannone continued to grow until the early 90s, reaching eight kilometers in length and coming with its end just one and a half kilometers from the beaches of the Lido of Volano. This rapid evolution risked compromising communications between the Goro Sack and the sea, worsening the eutrophication phenomena that already threatened breeding and fishing activities within the lagoon; For this reason, in the central area of the scanno, a hydrovorous station was built. In 1992, just west of the water, a canal was illegally dug along which a strong current was established, which caused it to rapidly widen. This gap has therefore assumed the functions of a real tidal mouth, again giving shape to a peninsula and an island
