Restoration of a Restinga Sandy Coastal Plain in Brazil: Survival and Growth of Planted Woody SpeciesBackgroundRestingas – coastal sandy vegetation – have been affected by human impact for about 8,000 years. Human use of these sites for housing, tourism, and recreation has recently increased in such a way that there is a need for conservation of remnant patches and restoration of degraded areas throughout the coast to protect biodiversity.
