Coastal habitats provide the link between the land and the sea.
They are dynamic, combine to form ecosystems of great complexity
and provide significant areas for wildlife. Their landscapes are
treasured by visitors, painters and musicians. They also provide
locations for significant economic activity and are intimately
bound up with fisheries, providing food and shelter for some
species of commercially exploited fish stocks. The habitats
themselves provide a buffer to tides and wave action, which may be
particularly important in areas where relative sea level is rising
and during storm periods. Managing these assets in the face of
continuing pressure from human populations on a sustainable basis
is a major task.
