Abstract
In this paper the author studies the dynamic of meandering channels of the river Ebro (section Rincón de Soto-Castejón). Afier working with aerial photography from 1927 to 1986 the most dynamic points have been chosen and their evolution has been analysed by a detailed cartography of the channel and the jloodplain. We have observed a progressive deforestation of the gro ves and a parallel occupation of the riverside by human action, which is revealed by the increase of cultivated areas and the development of dam works.

Summary
El curso medio del Ebro se caracteriza por la sucesión de meandros libres divagantes sobre la llanura de inundación. La dinámica del cauce ha sido espectacular en muchos puntos, siendo especialmente interesante en este sentido el sector que discurre entre las localidades de Rincón de Soto (La Rioja) y Castejón (Navarra). A partir del trabajo con varios vuelos de fotografías aéreas desde 1927 hasta 1986, se han seleccionado los puntos más dinámicos y se ha analizado su evolución mediante una cartografía detallada del cauce y de la llanura de inundación. Se asiste a una progresiva deforestación de los sotos y a una paralela antropización del espacio ribereño, marcada por el avance de los cultivos y el desarrollo de obras de contención
