Answer:

Beach norishment refers to addition of sand on beach to reduce the erosion effect by water currents.

Vegetation management is the (re)plantation of plants to reduce the erosion effect on beaches caused by waves.

Explanation:

In the statements given above, addition of hard structure doesn't primarily means beach nourishment, likewise, vegetation management doesn't replace the sand on beach rather prevent sand erosion. However, vegetation management brings in plants that hold the sand especially on sand dunes. Floods cannot be totally controlled by beach nourishment but with the help of plants, their impact can be minimized.
