由于海岸独特而富有生气的自然风景,千百年来滨海地区一直吸引着人类在此居住,加之20世纪的快速城市发展,海岸地区正在遭受着海洋影响与人口膨胀的威胁。世界上最富活力的海岸景观之一是美国北卡罗莱那州与陆地分离的海岸地带(即外围浅滩)。岛屿边缘优美的水体景观成为吸引人们在此居住的重要驱动力。 Due to the unique and lively natural landscape of the coast, the coastal region has been attracting humankind for thousands of years, coupled with the rapid urban development of the twentieth century, which is threatening the marine impact and population expansion. One of the most dynamic coastal landscapes in the world is the coastal zone (ie, the peripheral shoal) separated from the land in North Carolina, United States. The beautiful water landscape on the edge of the island has become an important driving force to attract people to live here.
