There has been considerable pressure from ill-planned developmental activities on the coastal areas of the east coast of India, especially Tamil Nadu, which have already lead to repercussions on the coastline and its ecology. Though ecosystems like mangroves, coral reefs and seagrass beds are getting recognition as important coastal ecosystems and shoreline stabilizers, sandy beaches and sand dunes do not get adequate attention as important coastal ecosystems in their own right, and their role in stabilizing the coastline is mostly overlooked.
