Coastal Dune Restoration: Trends and Perspectives [PDF]
Springer Series on Environmental Management, 2013 Sandy coasts are distributed worldwide and they are all heterogeneous ecosystems in terms of morphology, vegetation, and dynamics. Psammophytes are common in these environments.

Restoration of Coastal Dune Slacks in the Netherlands [PDF]
Hydrobiologia, 2002 In order to stop the continuous decline of typical dune slack communities along the Dutch coast, restoration projects have been carried out since 1952. Restoration measures consisted of re-introducing traditional management techniques in dune slacks, such as mowing, grazing and sod removal, or constructing artificial dune slacks to compensate for lost ...

Ecological Indicators, 2015 A B S T R A C T Overpopulation and deficient management of the worlds coastlines have seriously degraded beaches and coastal dunes, which are environments that provide valuable ecosystem services to society. The need to restore these ecosystems is increasingly urgent; however, this is a complex task since variables that differ widely (i.e.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2020
The purpose of this paper is to contribute with a tool to guide decision makers with some level of understanding of coastal dynamics as to the most appropriate management measures to adopt. A set of indices for assessing beach-dune systems and their potential for dune restoration are presented. The systems analysed are described using variables related

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2016
AbstractThe results from three years of surveying and monitoring a dynamic foredune and dunefield restoration effort on Vancouver Island, Canada is presented. Complete removal of foredune vegetation occurred in three phases spaced a year apart in an effort to control invasive Ammophila spp.

Dune slack restoration in Dutch mainland coastal dunes
Journal for Nature Conservation, 2008Summary The 45,000 ha Dutch dunes are relatively well protected but they suffer from severe desiccation. During the last decade a lot of knowledge has been obtained about the steering processes of eco-hydrology in dunes resulting in well-founded schemes to restore wet dune slack communities.
