Was reading an article about creation of a large public beach. It only sat 2ft above sea level and often washed over in high tide. The developers bulldozed sand from the sea side to bring it up to 12ft. But they had big troubles with wind blowing the sand inland. It almost scuttled the whole project.
So they planted hardy native grass that grew roots toward the water. It mitigated the dust problem.
Wonder if a similar thing can be done with native desert vegetation to solve this problem.
