Geomorphic activity of rabbits on a coastal sand dune, De Blink dunes, The Netherlands

Auteur :
RUTIN, J.

Description :
The contribution of rabbits to the processes (erosion rate and stability of sandy slopes) was found to depend on two types of activity : the building of caves and sand mounds and the digging of shallow burrows. The total amount of sand actually transported on the dune due to this activity is not clear yet, but their influence on the development of stepped slopes in well established.
