International experts discuss sediment dynamics in the Wadden Sea

The only thing about the Wadden Sea that is constant is its continuous transformation: ebb and flood, wind and waves reform the mudflats, beaches, dunes and salt marshes on a daily basis. These strong natural dynamics were one of the reasons why the Wadden Sea was inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List and provided the theme for this year’s Wadden Sea Day. Stakeholders from the trilateral Wadden Sea community – representatives from nature conservation, research, politics and NGOs – met on 30 August 2018 at the Wadden Sea World Heritage Visitor Center in Wilhelmshaven.
