| Résumé : |
The overall aim was the reconversion and restoration of an exceptional coastal site by means of a multidisciplinary and integrated approach. The objectives of the restoration are to:
• Re-establish a more natural hydrological regime by reconnecting the site with surrounding hydrosystems (Vaccarès Lagoon, Mediterranean Sea, and Rhône River via an agricultural hydraulic system); • Reconstitute the characteristic ecosystems of Mediterranean coastal lagoons and sandy seafronts (dunes, saline grasslands, dry grasslands); • Maintain or increase the site’s holding capacity for colonial waterbirds; • Implement an adaptive management approach to the rising sea level by a controlled, progressive retreat from the coastline in areas subject to erosion; • Integrate local economic development by promoting sustainable, environmentally friendly ways to visit the lagoons and marshes of the former Camargue saltworks. |
