| In: | Coastal erosion responses for Alaska : workshop proceedings. (2006.), |
| Abstract: | Identifies five general categories of engineering response to shoreline erosion: armouring, moderation, restoration, adaptation, and abstention. Also identifies circumstances/locations in which shore protection projects are justified. Notes that some solutions are only temporary, and that all projects should be monitored for performance and deterioration. |
