sand from the beach kills vegetation and results in mobility as well (as demonstrated by Rhind and Jones 2010, in Wales). But gentle supply leads to enhanced
vegetation growth and blocks the transfer. Is there some equilibrium? Can we
manipulate the system in such a way that both wave erosion and (gentle) sand
supply keep the transfer function intact? Can we nourish our coastline in such a
way that its position is largely preserved and the sand-sharing system of the beach
and dunes is stimulated at the same time? This is an important challenge for the
years to come. If we succeed, we can meet both requirements for coastal defense
and nature management.
