O pisoteio é um dos principais fatores de perturbação da duna frontal, originando uma rede de caminhos e clareiras no meio da vegetação densa, por eliminação de plantas vulneráveis como ammophila arenaria. Em comunidades vegetais não perturbadas, à medida que A. arenaria se torna dominante, a coexistência de outras espécies é inibida, tanto pela sua estratégia de crescimento em falange, como pela diminuição da mobilidade da areia junto à superfície. Porém, a dominância desta perene, responsável pelo crescimento em altura da duna, pode ser localmente invertida após o cessar do pisoteio. Dados recolhidos em três áreas de estudo no litoral de Vila nova de Gaia em 2006, três anos após a primeira grande intervenção da Câmara Municipal no ordenamento dos acessos à praia através das dunas, sugerem que a súbita abundância de medicago marina se relacionará com a maior disponibilidade de locais adequados ao seu recrutamento, na sequência da morte de indivíduos de A. arenaria. Ao estabilizar eficazmente a areia de caminhos e clareiras de perturbação, M. marina cria condições para a colonização de variadas espécies anuais e modifica de forma significativa o gradiente de mobilidade e deposição da areia na duna frontal.
