Van Lancker, V., more Velpen, A.V. Liu, J. Abstract Global demand for marine sand is on the rise, expanding dredging impacts on biodiversity and often encroaching on marine protected areas.

This requires addressing knowledge gaps, enhancing accountability, and mainstreaming ecological restoration to reverse biodiversity loss.
