Activity



Rocky shores provide hard, rigid structures that mitigate disturbances to other coastal ecosystems caused by wave action and storm surges. They stabilize inshore sediment and protect in from erosion, support development of islands (by trapping and accumulating sand), mitigate impact of rising sea levels, serve as a buffer during storm events and can additionally serve as substrate for other physical structures, such as coral or oyster reefs (anon., 2005; anon., 2006).
