Living with Long Island's South Shore
ISBN: 9780822305026 / Angielski / Miękka / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The south shore of Long Island, one of New York's greatest recreational assets, is receding at the rate of up to six feet per year. In many cases, efforts to halt this erosion actually have increased it. Buildings cone thought safely constructed back from high tidemarks today protrude far into the water.

Thus, the question of what to do now to overcome and... The south shore of Long Island, one of New York's greatest recreational assets, is receding at the rate of up to six feet per year.
