The true effects of climate change on the coastal environment are not accurately known at this time, because scientists can only guess at the likely impacts based on current global trends and past data configured from tests ranging from examining ice strata using core samples, to monitoring control/indicator species to see how they are being affected.

Ss-shore structures designed to reduce longshore transport on open beaches or to deflect nearshore currents within an estuary. On an open beach they are normally built as a series to influence a long section of shoreline that has been nourished or is managed by recycling. In an estuary they may be single structures.

Frazer's Coastal Zone Management Blog. Wednesday, 18 June 2008. Article From the Guardian Newspaper. Scotland's gullible politicians are the victims of a colossal Trump try-on.
