"Fore dune" means the primary ridge or mound of sand closest to the sea, formed by the accumulation of wind-blown sand, that provides a substrate for the growth of dune vegetation which in turn traps more sand and allows the dune to grow so as to provide critical storm surge shoreline stabilization and habitat functions.
