Environmental Impact of Geosynthetics in Coastal Protection. [PDF]
Geosynthetic materials are applied in measures for coastal protection. Weathering or any damage of constructions, as shown by a field study in Kaliningrad Oblast (Russia), could lead to the littering of the beach or the sea (marine littering) and the discharge of possibly harmful additives into the marine environment.

THE USE OF MANGROVES IN COASTAL PROTECTION [PDF]
The objective of this research is to obtain generic relations between attenuated wave heights and various vegetation and topographical scenarios. Subsequently, it is aimed to find out what is the actual cost profit of a dike construction behind a mangrove zone comparing to the case when mangroves are absent.

Coastal protection in Latvia [PDF]
Ab stract This article presents the situation of existing protection solutions against the coastal erosion set up along the coast of the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Riga in the territory of Latvia. The foreseen global climate change impacts and the ever-growing human load on the coastal areas along with the lack of erosion policy have created serious ...

COMPENSATION AND COASTAL PROTECTION
In this presentation, the authors examine the circumstances in which public bodies and professionals retained by them can be liable to pay monetary compensation for erosion damage. Coastal engineering, together with the analysis of coastal processes, play an important role in this legal landscape.
