The value of ecosystem services provided by foredunes will increase as the protective functions of the dunes are better appreciated and more appropriately managed, especially in the context of rising sea level, the likelihood of increased storm severity, and increased human population pressures. Linking foredune stability, in this case represented by the characteristics of foredune texture, to current and predicted climatic conditions is an important step toward understanding and planning for environmental change.{\textquotedblright} (p.917)},
