Dans cette région, la sédimentation sur les estrans du cap Tourmente, de la côte sud et des rivages des îles de l'archipel de Montmagny est favorisée en période estivale par la croissance de la végétation (Scirpus americanus, principalement) et la marée, qui tendent à ramener vers l'estran des sédiments fins accumulés au large de ce dernier en fin d'hiver.
