Ecological and social basis for the development of a sand barrier breaching model in Laguna de Rocha, Uruguay
The research establishes a new breaching protocol for the sand barrier at Laguna de Rocha, Uruguay, replacing artificial opening practices that began in the 1950s and may have caused negative physical and biological effects since the 1980s. The protocol uses indicators such as water depth, sand barrier berm elevation, and rainfall forecasts to guide management decisions. The process relied on a participatory advisory group active for over 15 years to reach a consensus among scientists, authorities, and local stakeholders.
