 The sensitivity of subtidal sandbanks to recreational pressure
For example, the subtidal sandbanks in the Solway Firth are heavily influenced by strong tidal streams, which can move the sandbanks some distance over the period of one tidal cycle.
Subtidal sandbanks also support benthic or burrowing communities and, as with intertidal mud and sandflats, the nature and location of these communities is largely determined by the nature of the sediment which forms the sandbank.
As subtidal sandbanks are, by their nature, the result of relatively high energy conditions, they are likely to be flexible to changes caused by storms or human activities.
