Coastal management refers to the strategies and practices used to protect and sustainably manage coastal areas. This includes addressing issues like erosion, habitat loss, and pollution while balancing the needs of local communities, wildlife, and economic activities such as tourism and fishing. Effective coastal management aims to preserve natural resources and ensure the resilience of coastal ecosystems. Key components of coastal management involve planning, regulation, and community engagement. Tools such as zoning, beach nourishment, and marine protected areas are often employed to mitigate environmental impacts. By integrating scientific research and local knowledge, coastal management seeks to create a sustainable future for coastal regions.
