Coastal sand dunes are threatened ecosystems that support rare and endangered animal and plant species. It is important to preserve dunes and restore damaged sites wherever possible. In order to protect sand dune systems of high conservation value, their ecology needs to be understood, so that informed decisions can be made as to how to manage these habitats. The research presented in this book addresses the threats of overstabilisation, accelerated successional development and atmospheric deposition of nitrogen, and investigates how livestock grazing management can contribute to maintaining...
