Excerpts;
Coastal erosion is a seasonal phenomenon, as nature chips into the shore during the monsoon and mostly returns what is lost, but the severe damage witnessed in some areas of the coast, especially, Colva, Miramar, Anjuna and Morjim raised a concern among locals, as the sea made deeper inroads in new spots along the coast.
Scientists have often pointed that destruction of sand dunes exposes the beach to the threats of more erosion.
