Options for management are considered and the likely consequences of taking a particular course of action highlighted. These options include traditional approaches to the conservation and management of wildlife and landscapes as well as habitat restoration. The way the value of the areas changes under different management regimes is considered mainly from an environmental perspective. Consideration is given to new approaches to management and restoration including adopting a more dynamic approach. Audience This book will be of interest to academics, students and professionals concerned with policy formulation and /or actively managing coastal areas. 410 0$aCoastal Research Library,$x2211-0577 ;$v4 606 $aSand dune conservation 606 $aSand dunes 606 $aSand dune management 615 0$aSand dune conservation. 615 0$aSand dunes. 615 0$aSand dune management. 676 $a577.5 676 $a577.583 700 $aDoody$b J.
