Description

Explore the complex realities of coastal management in Pitfalls of Shoreline Stabilization: Selected Case Studies: 3. As rising sea levels increase the risks of shoreline erosion and storm damage, understanding the consequences of beachfront development is more important than ever. This volume from the Coastal Research Library examines the various methods used to protect property and infrastructure. Through detailed case studies, the text looks at how sea walls, groynes, offshore breakwaters, and other stabilization schemes change natural environments. It also addresses the rise of artificial beaches created to protect infrastructure in poorly placed locations. This book provides a deep look into why many stabilization efforts may not work as intended and how they impact the natural coastline. It is an essential resource for those studying the effects of human intervention on coastal ecosystems and the challenges of protecting coastal properties in a changing climate.
