doxycycline paper is the morphometric characterization of the bedforms, so we measured, on selected bathymetric profiles for each bedform field (Fig. 6a, excluding the bedform-like morphological features), indicative wave parameters for single bedforms. Descriptive statistics of such parameters are reported in Table 2. The comparison of median values between the different bedform fields confirms the previous general observations, with similar values of wavelength and wave height for the bedforms developed around Stromboli and Vulcano, whereas bedforms at Lipari and Panarea are characterized by three to five times higher values, respectively. Stoss side slope is quite similar for all the cases, with median values comprised between − 2.5° (negative values indicate a counter-sloping surface) and 2.3°; lee side slope is comprised between 7° and 15°, except for the Lipari case, where median value is 31°. Similarly, the aspect ratio is comprised in a narrow range for the different bedform fields (0.026–0.03
cool , except for the Lipari case where a value of 0.056 is present. Symmetry index (SI) median values are comprised between 1 and 1.45; more in detail, nearly symmetrical bedforms (SI = 0.6–1.4) are the dominant form (69%), in association with dune-like
asymmetrical (SI > 1.4, 29%) and minor antidune-like asymmetrical (SI
