| Abstract |
Coastal areas are extremely dynamic and sensitive systems which undergo geomorphological changes that reflect the conservation status of both aeolian forms and plant communities. Recently, several studies have been performed in order to correlate aeolian forms (as the landscape supporting framework) and associated vegetation complexes. Evidence shows that a close relationship exists between dune vegetation and coastal dune types, supporting the idea that they can be used as the background for bioindication models of erosion and stability in the coastal zone. In this paper, we discuss results from recent studies and identify the main indicators of coastal processes and related dynamics. We stress that coastal planning and management require integrated studies, including the knowledge from several scientific approaches. |
