Endophytic Fungal Diversity Associated with the Roots of Coastal Sand-dune Plants in the Sindu-ri Coastal Sand Dune, Korea

Korean Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013
The coastal sand-dune plants of eight species; Argusia sibirica, Calystegia soldanella, Elymus mollis, Lithospermum zollingeri, Raphanus sativus, Salsola collina, Zoysia macrostachya, and Zoysia sinica were collected from the Shindu-ri coastal sand dune.

Coastal sand dune stabilization in the Pacific Northwest

International Journal of Biometeorology, 1977
Coastal dunes are stabilized in three stages: (1) The initial stage uses sand-stilling grasses established vegetatively. For this purpose, European beachgrass,Ammophila arenaria (L.) Link., is most used, followed by American beachgrass,A. breviligulata Fern., or American dunegrass,Elymus mollis Trin.

Adaptations of plants to burial in coastal sand dunes

Canadian Journal of Botany, 1998
One of the most obvious features on the foredunes and strands of coasts and lakes is recurrent burial in sand. Burial levels vary in different coastal sand dune systems and influence the physical and biotic microenvironment of the plant and soil. Foredune plants along coasts possess numerous adaptations to withstand burial.

Coastal sand dunes : a review of management strategies for dune stabilization

The primary objective of this technical note is to provide a US-centric review on historic and current management approaches for dune stabilization efforts. This includes methods for promoting dune formation via natural aeolian processes, as well as more hands-on management approaches, including hybrid dune construction.

Coastal Sand Dunes: A Potential Goldmine of Bioresources

2015
Coastal sand dunes are nutrient deficient and experience severe stresses. Yet, sand dune plants or psammophytes adapt to the prevailing stress conditions and are able to proliferate in these dunes. Plant communities in sand dunes are controlled by the interaction between biotic and physicochemical components of the sand matrix.
