Unit Two: Coastal Sand Dunes and Management In North Wales [U.K.]

This Virtual Fieldwork Unit is based on two classic areas of coastal sand dunes in North Wales. The first set of dunes are at Aberffraw on the island of Anglesey and the second set are at Morfa Harlech on the north-west coast of Gwynedd.
