Hanging by a Thread

Location: Barra del Trabucador, Delta del Ebro, Tarragona
Description: Barra del Trabucador is one of the most vulnerable areas in the Delta del Ebro and the Catalan coast to climate change, storm impacts, and sea level rise. In 2020, the Gloria storm wiped it off the map, and since then, there have been many attempts to restore it (in fact, artificial dunes can be observed). Will it withstand the next assault of the sea or continue hanging by a thread?
