Developing community-based monitoring guidelines for coastal sand dunes
The Coastal Restoration Trust has recently initiated a project to develop national community-based guidelines for monitoring coastal sand 
dunes and restoration programmes. The aim is to provide Coastcare groups and managing agencies with scientifically robust, easy-to-use guidelines for quantifying the status of their dunes and to determine whether restoration outcomes are meeting objectives. The 3-year project is funded by the Ministry for the Environment’s Community Environment Fund with cofunding and support from the Coastal Restoration Trust and its research partners including councils, the Department of Conservation and Coast Care groups.
