| Abstract: | Coastal sand dune ecosystems are among the most dynamic and threatened habitats of the Mediterranean, hosting specialised flora that is highly sensitive to environmental pressures and human disturbance. Understanding their long-term vegetation dynamics is essential to evaluate resilience, adaptive capacity, and restoration potential, particularly under the framework of the EU Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR). This study analyses temporal shifts in plant species composition in sand dune systems over the past fifty years. [excerpt] |
