Coasts of Pacific islands

As populations grow in Pacific Island Countries, urbanisation and development expand and pressure on the coastal zone increases. Demands are made for land reclamation and coastal stabilisation. The coast is expected to provide more and more resources ranging from construction materials to food, to ab-
sorb growing amounts of domestic and industrial refuse, as well as to continue to retain its cultural importance.
