This work assesses the level and role of management and the morphological status of coastal dunes in Catalonia and Valencia. Ten beach-dune systems were studied to determine how management actions influence their morphological status. Results show two main groups: those without sustainable management, in an advanced erosive state, and those where sustainable management was applied, presenting good conservation status.

Based on the "Preliminary Studies for the stabilization of the beaches of Sant Adrià de Besòs, Badalona and Montgat", of March 2021, this document proposes a series of stabilization measures for the beaches of Badalona and Montgat.

The study analyzes changes in the forest landscape of the Costa Brava over the past century through the comparison of historical and contemporary photographs. The results show a significant increase in forest cover, with the recovery of pine and oak forests, while agricultural areas have declined. This suggests a shift in land use and in the tourist perception of the landscape.

This study evaluates the geomorphological state of 12 beach-dune systems over time, classifying them into four stages according to their degree of degradation: 1- systems in a natural state (two beaches), 2- highly altered or disappeared dune systems (three beaches), 3- dune systems in recovery process (five beaches), and 4- stabilized dune systems (two beaches).

The study examines human influence on the evolution of beach-dune systems in the Balearic Islands, focusing on afforestation with Pinus halepensis. Historically, actions have been taken to stabilize these areas, significantly impacting the morphology and dynamics of the systems. Through a historical review and analysis of 31 such systems, it is evident that the presence of Pinus halepensis is largely associated with human interventions, significantly affecting vegetation structure and biodiversity conservation.

The publication includes two documents related to the socioeconomic benefits of metropolitan beaches: on the one hand, an evaluation of the economic value of the beaches in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, and on the other, a report on the socioeconomic impact of metropolitan beaches.

The patterns of use and frequentation of beaches are a useful tool in coastal management and planning. The aim of this article is to apply the methodology for the analysis of physical carrying capacity in 16 beaches of the island of Menorca, based on the values in m²/user recommended in 2000. A multi-temporal analysis of the evolution of the beaches is carried out using qualitative variables that allow obtaining the trends of the beaches with parameters that analyze their management and occupation (2000-2017). The results obtained show that the beaches have acceptable carrying capacities and that environmental management, their publicity, and the services provided condition their spatio-temporal evolution. The methodology allows establishing future scenarios through the use of the analyzed variables.
