Lithuanian seaside shallow sandy shores are one of the most variable and most sensitive to environmental changes places on the earth. Baltic Sea level rises each year by about 6.5 mm. Coast abrasion intensity increases at the temperature of growth, which is mainly caused by our latitudes warm winter. Last time the Baltic Sea was frozen in 1963.
