by Keith Martin Clayton, Univ of East Anglia, Norwich, England,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Coastal Zone '85

Abstract:

Five case-studies from the East coast of England illustrate some of the obstacles facing more enlightened coastal management in the United Kingdom. All the examples demonstrate unsatisfactory responses to coastal erosion and require changes in attitudes and in legislation if more effective management is to occur.
