“…During the past, increasing sea level and intensified use of coastal areas has resulted in a consistently growing number of sediment nourishment projects which lead to a higher demand of marine sand (Kim 2009;Bonne 2010;Gopalakrishnan et al 2017). Consequently, one of the greatest coastal management challenges is the acquisition of materials for beach nourishment.…”

Morphological changes due to marine aggregate extraction for beach nourishment in the German Bight (SE North Sea)

Facing the predicted rise in global sea level, sandy shorelines are under increasing pressure. In order to counteract the loss of material at eroding coastlines, beach nourishment is considered to be an environmentally friendly approach worldwide. This has resulted in a rising demand for aggregates, which are frequently extracted from the seafloor near the coast. In order to explore the long-and short-term morphological changes of such mining on the seabed, the largest extraction area in the German Bight (Westerland Dredging Area, established in 1984) was investigated in this study. Several measurement campaigns were conducted between the years 1994 and 2017 using a set of hydroacoustic techniques. The measurements revealed that up to 20-m-deep pits with diameters of more than 1 km were dredged into the seafloor. The depressions caused by this sand mining are still detectable more than 30 years later. Because of slope failures that mainly consist of fine sand, the formerly steep rims at fresh dredging pits smoothed within a few months. However, after approximately 1 year, muddy sediments dominated the deposition. Since the sedimentation rates are slow, a complete backfill of the post-dredging pits is likely to take many decades. A natural regeneration towards the former seafloor conditions is only visible at the shallow rims of the oldest dredging pits.

“…Studies dealing with attitudes of participants may improve protected area management, and help to identify the problems and to recognise potential solutions for appropriate developing strategy (Sewell, 1973). Most common factors affecting residents' perceptions are the level of trust towards institutions responsible for environmental management (Kim, 2009), the changes imposed during the designation of a protected area (Garcia-Frapolli, Ramos-Fernandez, Galicia, & Serrano, 2009) and the level of awareness among citizens (Petrosillo, Zaccarelli, Semeraro, & Zurlini, 2009). occur.…”

The present article aims to describe perceptions and awareness of local residents in two categories of the Sumava region protected areas–National Park (NP) and Protected Landscape Area (PLA). The survey explores perceptions of individuals on nature protection, protected area management, tourism and related issues. Differences between these two research areas are also explored. Standardised personal interviews were conducted during the summer season of 2008. The study took place in six municipalities in NP (Borova Lada, Srni, Prasily, Kvilda, Horska Kvilda and Modrava; 183 questionnaires in total) and in three municipalities in PLA (Kasperske Hory, Hojsova Straz and Cachrov; 138 questionnaires in total). According to the results of the study, there were more natives and indigenous residents in NP than PLA. Similarly, local people in NP were working more often in the public sector and less in the private sector and they had more benefits from tourism. Residents in PLA were less informed about Administration activities, more satisfied with topical nature conservation level and against expansion of NP to their place of residence. Also, a significant finding of the study is that residents (especially in PLA) were supportive of some forms of participatory management. They are interested in the advancement of the area, mostly in the form of improvement of tourism-related facilities. They love this region and also call for better communication with NP/PLA Administration.

“…It is argued that successful conservation initiatives require the active participation of local communities in decisionmaking processes as well as changes in perceptions in order to integrate local development with environmental conservation (Durrant and Shumway, 2004;Eben, 2007;Faasen and Watts, 2007;Gerhardinger et al, 2009;Gillingham and Lee, 1999;Hiedanpaa, 2005;McClanahan et al, 2006;Xu et al, 2006). Indicative factors affecting citizens' perceptions and behaviors concerning protected areas include the level of trust towards institutions responsible for environmental management and their effectiveness (Bogaert et al, 2009;Kim, 2009), the changes imposed during the designation of a protected area (Garcia-Frapolli et al, 2009), the level of awareness among citizens (Petrosillo et al, 2007(Petrosillo et al, , 2009 and the personal attribution of individuals (Alessa et al, 2003).…”
