The top of North Caineville Mesa in the background is 360m above the alluvialsurface in the middle distance, and is capped by the With over four billion people living in coastal areas and the numbers growing rapidly each year, the need to understand and manage these areas is critical. Coastal areas are one of the most dynamic environments on the earth and area being constantly re-shaped by both natural processes and human development. They have both economic and environmental value – and it is these conflicting demands that bring about the need for long-term, sustainable management strategies.. Headlands and Bays.
