Description
Summary:Coastal zones are places where environments, cultures, and economies all collide and interact, and 'Challenging Coasts' examines the important issues involved in managing coastal zones. Contributors to the volume argue that coastal zones pose a developmental rather than a management challenge and require a multidisciplinary response from the social and natural sciences. Thus papers collected here examine international case studies and address a variety of issues such as biodiversity protection and the legal concerns of habitat protection. 'Challenging Coasts' is an important and invaluable resource for marine scientists and those interested in coastal zone development.
