Animals that live in sand dunes know that the sand just beneath the surface is cooler. That's why they remain underground during the hottest hours of the day. One of the factors that dune animals must face is to know how to conserve water. The kangaroo rat is a great model of water conservation.
4.0 Human Impacts on Coastal Sand Dune Ecosystems. As mentioned in the previous chapter, humans have been responsible for changing the lithosphere and biosphere on Coastal Sand Dunes. The Stockton Bight Coastal Sand Dunes are no exception and humans have had both positive and negative impacts upon them. 1. Positive Impacts a) Aboriginals, fire and the Encouragement of Biodiversity. The most positive human impact that has been made on the Stockton Bight Coastal Sand Dunes was by the Aboriginal people, particularly the Worimi Nation. The Worimipeople, through a practice called fire stick farming, have actively encouraged vegetation growth. As explained earlier, vegetation plays two important roles on Coastal Sand Dunes. Firstly, it helps stabilise dunes by trapping and stabilising the sand particles.
