Asia-Pacific Conference on Science and Management of Coastal Environment Proceedings of the International Conference held in Hong Kong, 25–28 June 1996
Human beings have a long historical relationship with the coast. Initially it provided food and security, later forming important locations for industrial and commercial development. Now the emphasis has shifted towards leisure and conservation, although the former functions remain crucial. However,...
