Abstract
    Different surveys were made on the Flemish Banks between 1982 and 1988 using side-scan sonar and echosounder. The maintenance of the Flemish Banks is explained by a sedimentdynamic model which uses megaripples rather than sandwaves as residual sand transport indicators. The model presents a continuity in time as all major transport paths could be recognize on the different recordings. Nevertheless, differences in the distribution and geometry of bedforms occur specifically in the deeper northern and southern edges of the banks where reversals of the asymetry of megaripples were detected. The characteristics of the detected bedforms on the central shallwoer parts of the banks remain similar through time. Longitudinal transport of sand parallel to the bank axis can occur temporarily on the bank summit in one or two opposing directions.
