Abstract
In this chapter, the main results of the study are comprised and conclusions were made separately for the North Sea and the Baltic Sea coast. The integrated results regarded temperature and sea level changes and included soil processes and the biotic systems separated for vegetation and animal communities. Additionally, management impacts such as de-embankment or grazing are also considered. It could be shown that the complexity of the ecosystems and the uncertainness of the climate change predictions prevent concrete management proposals. An adapted monitoring of the coastal development on the local scale is needed as a consequence of the distinct local drift and sediment conditions at present and their future development.
