Assessing the Impact of a Winter Storm on the Beach and Dune Systems and Erosion Mitigation by Plants
The impact of storms on coastal dunes and beaches and the effects they induce in topography and plant communities are natural processes that contribute to maintaining natural coastal dynamics. However, because coasts are often densely populated, these phenomena are perceived as major threats to huma...
