| Abstract [eng] |
The data about the pattern of beach users’ dynamics in the coastal area are important in coastal morphodynamic, environmental and recreational aspects. Taking into consideration the ever increasing flow of beach users the investigations of its dynamics has become a priority issue in the context of sustainable development of the coast. The main objective of the present research is to determine the spatial and temporal patterns of beach users’ flow dynamics in all recreational zones of Curonian Spit and mainland coast. The presented dynamic patterns of beach users in the coastal zone are helpful for more precise evaluation of the influence of recreation on the state of coasts and for better understanding of coastal morphodynamic processes. The practical application of the obtained results also is important: on their basis it is possible to pinpoint the hotbeds of ecological conflict in the recreational zones and highlight their causes. The obtained results also are helpful for development and successful implementation of the reconstruction of recreational zones and to achieve more even distribution of beach users in the coastal zone. The mentioned measures would not only improve the recreational conditions but also would add to stability of coastal landscape. |
