Ask for publication number UNC-SG-BP-82-1. Every coastal dune needs roots to survive. Dune vegetation not only stabilizes the sur- face, it also traps new sand and puts erosion on hold. To build or repair dunes on coastal property, owners need only basic gardening tools and a little time for planting and main- tenance. Sea Grant's new publication, Building and Stabilizing Coastal Dunes with Vegetation, provides guidelines for property owners in- terested in this natural erosion-control method. Specific information is given on the five dune grasses suitable for transplanting along the North Carolina coastline — American beachgrass, bitter panicum, saltmeadow cordgrass, sea oats and seashore elder—from dates and methods for planting to disease resistance. Tips on fertilization, transplanting, maintenance and choos- ing the right grass for the site are also included. Building and Stabilizing Coastal Dunes with Vegetation is written by Broome and Woodhouse, Jr. of the Department of Soil Science and Seneca of the Department of Botany at North Carolina State Uni- versity. This publication is the result of research supported by the UNC Sea Grant College Program, North Carolina Agricultural Research Ser- vice and the Army Corps of Engineers. Broome, Woodhouse and Seneca are also authors of another Sea Grant publication on erosion control called Planting Marsh Grasses for Erosion Control. Continued on next page.
