dune system restoration

Dune system restoration involves repairing and revitalizing natural sand dune environments that protect coastlines from erosion and storm surges. This process typically includes planting native vegetation, installing barriers to trap sand, removing invasive species, and sometimes adding sand to rebuild eroded areas. Restoring dunes helps maintain their role as natural barriers, supporting local ecosystems and safeguarding inland areas from weather-related damages. It is a careful effort that balances ecological health with human safety, aiming to restore dunes to a stable, resilient state that functions effectively over time.
