Description:The shores have been partly built up and even extended seaward by the natural growth of plants that formed certain distinct kinds of vegetation that stopped and heId materials brought in by waves, tides, and winds. Dense plant growth held these materials in place in the form of dunes. The purpose of this report is to provide coastal strand property owners and managers with guidelines for the use of vegetation in the protection and restoration of FIorida beaches and dunes. This vegetation is described in Part I of this publication, and some methods of using plants to repeat the natural process of dune formation are considered in Part II.
