Coastal Defense Systems

Coastal defense systems are structures and technologies designed to protect shoreline areas from threats like storm surges, flooding, and potential attacks. They include barriers such as seawalls, breakwaters, and dunes, which absorb or deflect wave energy to prevent damage. Additionally, modern systems may incorporate surveillance, warning systems, and military installations to monitor and defend the coast. Together, these measures help mitigate natural hazards and ensure the safety of communities, infrastructure, and ecosystems along coastlines.
