Create a standardized database and method to analyze existing projects on dune creation and coastal defence.Improve urban dune management introducing beach morphodynamics, dune ecosystem processes and the
(mechanical sand cleaning, high frequentation,....).Define the concept of urban dune. Explore new ways of governance from an ES/NC perspective concepts, and shared management and financing.Create a mediterranean urban dune management manual relying on ES/NC concepts as basement.

will be also a core instrument to engage citizens *citizen science).
On the process of defining methods and data to be collected in order to:�Characterize the level of "naturalness" or urbanity of dunes (going beyond beach morphodynamics, and classical botanical classification). �Assess the economic efficiency of the proposed measures on flood and erosion control.�Assess the economic value of urban dunes.�Assess the efficiency of control measures of the recreational use and its related social response.�Assess the level of engagement of citizen and stakeholders.�Assess the efficiency of existing and alternative governance models.
!Rate of recolonization of fauna & flora from dune ecosystems.! Persistence of hybrid dunes in front of storm different types of storm events.! CBA of hybrid dune construction.! Functional stakeholder involvement.! Level of social engagement.! Evolution of the global system of mediterranean dunes *urban and non urban, trends and scenarios.
