COASTAL STRUCTURES
Público DepositedContenido Descargable
open in viewerCádiz province faces increasing beach erosion resulting from climate change and human construction. This report explored using native, sand-binding flora as a nature-based solution to combat erosion on four beaches. We investigated the current coastal practices and flora presence through archival research, stakeholder interviews, and transect walks. A comparison of four beaches' dune system characteristics and protection techniques yielded targeted recommendations of suitable floras and dune protection measures necessary for local agencies to protect their treasured beaches.
