Dune stabilization refers to the methods used to prevent the erosion and shifting of sand dunes, which are natural formations created by wind and sand. This process is essential for protecting coastal areas, preventing habitat loss, and maintaining the integrity of ecosystems. Techniques often include planting vegetation, using sand fences, and applying geotextiles to hold the sand in place. Effective dune stabilization helps to reduce the impact of storms and rising sea levels, which can threaten coastal communities. By maintaining the structure of dunes, we can safeguard beaches, protect wildlife habitats, and enhance recreational areas for people.
