Assessment of dune stabilisation at camber, sussex, using air photographs, by Jennifer M. Pizzey, published June 1975 in Biological Conservation (vol. 7, no. 4, article, pp.275-288) View Online
Abstract:Using air photographs taken in 1950, 1962, 1967 and 1971 at Camber, Sussex, the progress of sand dune stabilisation was quickly and successfully assessed. Early stabilisation work included the construction of sand traps and the planting of marram ( Ammophila arenaria L.) which was subsequently destroyed by heavy pedestrian and vehicle use. The later application of hydraulically sown seeds, coupled with fencing to regulate pedestrians and trap wind blown sand, proved successful.
