Abstract |
The SMART project explores methods and tools for long-term policy analysis and strategic decision support for integrated coastal development with a special emphasis on water resources and land use, and the resource balance between the coastal region and inland areas. The ultimate aim is to develop, implement and test a new, participatory but scientifically sound and rational approach to planning and management of the coastal zone that can help to reconcile conflicting demands on scarce natural resources. |
