dc.subject	The thesis focuses on monitoring and analyzing two pioneer salt marshes in the Netherlands to understand the factors influencing their development and effectiveness as coastal protection. It examines vegetation, elevation, and sediment characteristics, as well as the impact of vegetation on soil stability. The research also explores the potential for creating coastal barriers through the restoration of intertidal lands.
