Coastal Processes

Managing coastal zones requires integrated approach: management decisions need to be based on a thorough knowledge of the coastal system and the dynamic forces that operate upon it. Managing coastal zones requires a continuous and iterative approach: coastal zones are highly dynamic systems often used and exploited to their maximum potential. Permanent and accurate monitoring of the changing circumstances and constant evaluation of the effectiveness of management efforts and actions are required to correct and steer future policies.
