Eco-friendly Approach on Sand Dune Restoration in Micro-Tidal Beach

Coastal erosion is a worldwide issue in which the absence of sand dunes could alter the landscape of beaches, especially those in micro-tidal environments. Practically, hard structures, such as revetments, is effective in mitigating erosion but do not protect well and can change the beach’s natural...
