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

open access: gold
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.

The Effect of Hydrated Lime Slurry on Stabilizing Sand Dunes Mobility [PDF]

open access: diamondJournal of Water and Soil Science, 2019
Creating a mulch layer on the sand dunes surface has long been applied to reduce their mobility. However, application of oil mulch in some countries, in addition to high costs, has many environmental problems. In this research, the hydrated lime slurry was used as a protective cover on the sand dunes. The slurry was prepared in three treatments with 3,
