You might want to rethink your sand surfing plans this summer, considering New Zealand’s sand dunes have degraded rapidly in just 50 years.
Active sand dunes are coastal habitats that sit between the land and marine domains.
Their moving sands support a unique group of plants and animals, but these are now under threat because of humans stabilising the dunes for their own use.
