Dune Stabilization
Dune stabilization involves implementing measures to prevent sand dunes from shifting or eroding due to wind, weather, or human activities. Techniques include planting native vegetation, installing barriers like fences, or constructing structures that trap sand and encourage existing dunes to grow naturally. The goal is to protect coastal areas, habitats, and infrastructure by maintaining dune stability, which acts as a natural barrier against storms and flooding. This process ensures that dunes can sustainably perform their role in shoreline defense while supporting local ecosystems.
