Abstract Florida’s dynamic beach-dune ecosystem and the structures built along the shore face threats from coastal (or shoreline) erosion, sea level rise, and inadequate regulatory protection efforts. In light of these threats, private property owners are choosing to install coastal armoring on their property to protect upland structures which can negatively impact sea turtles and their nesting habitat. Coastal armoring can significantly degrade the beach-dune ecosystem which serves as a vital economic and recreational resource and as crucial habitat for threatened or endangered sea turtle species, nesting shorebirds, and other endemic species. This study explored both Florida coastal property owner’s opinions of coastal armoring, and its impact on sea turtles and their nesting habitat. A quantitative survey was administered to beachfront property owners that live within a mile of a protected section of beach (e.g, state park, preserve, wildlife refuge). In total, 373 of 1,274 distributed surveys were returned and analyzed. The presence of a neighbor with coastal armoring was the most influential factor on a property owner intending to, or already having installed coastal armoring. Additionally, higher assessed property values and lower levels of education were also associated with intent to armor, or current presence of coastal armoring on a parcel.

沿海装甲和海龟:海滨房主的意见和意图

摘要 佛罗里达州的动态沙滩沙丘生态系统和沿海岸建造的结构面临来自海岸(或海岸线)侵蚀、海平面上升和监管保护力度不足的威胁。鉴于这些威胁,私人财产所有者选择在他们的财产上安装沿海装甲,以保护可能对海龟及其筑巢栖息地产生负面影响的高地结构。海岸防护会显着降低作为重要经济和娱乐资源以及受威胁或濒临灭绝的海龟物种、筑巢水鸟和其他特有物种的重要栖息地的沙丘生态系统。这项研究探讨了佛罗里达州沿海业主对沿海装甲的看法及其对海龟及其筑巢栖息地的影响。对居住在海滩受保护区域(例如,州立公园、保护区、野生动物保护区)一英里范围内的海滨业主进行了一项定量调查。总共返回并分析了 1,274 份分布式调查中的 373 份。有沿海装甲的邻居的存在是对打算或已经安装沿海装甲的业主最有影响的因素。此外,较高的评估财产价值和较低的教育水平也与装甲意图或包裹上当前存在沿海装甲有关。有沿海装甲的邻居的存在是对打算或已经安装沿海装甲的业主最有影响的因素。此外,较高的评估财产价值和较低的教育水平也与装甲意图或包裹上当前存在沿海装甲有关。有沿海装甲的邻居的存在是对打算或已经安装沿海装甲的业主最有影响的因素。此外,较高的评估财产价值和较低的教育水平也与装甲意图或包裹上当前存在沿海装甲有关。
