 Coastal Restoration - The Planning Process
Planning requires a substantial investment and is often challenging to fund, but the time and money spent on good planning is repaid by improved efficiency, better results, and fewer time-consuming or costly mid-course corrections.
It is critical that landscape-level variables such as size, shape, connectivity and configuration be considered in the development of these designs (Thom, Diefenderfer, and Hofreth in press).
Performance criteria are measurable or otherwise observable aspects of the restored system that indicate the progress of the system toward the goals (Thom and Wellman 1996).
