TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide insight in the conditions under which ecosystems may be valuable for coastal protection, discuss which might be the most promising intertidal ecosystems for this task and identify knowledge gaps that currently hamper application and hence need attention from the scientific community.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of seagrasses in coastal protection in a changing climate
Bárbara Ondiviela,Inigo J. Losada,Javier L. Lara,Maria Maza,Cristina Galván,Tjeerd J. Bouma,Jim van Belzen +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the contribution of seagrasses to coastal protection through a review of the most relevant existing knowledge and concluded that the optimal conditions for enhancing the protection supplied might be achieved in shallow waters and low wave energy environments, with high interaction surface, at the vertical and horizontal dimension, between water flow and seagrase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tsunami wave interaction with mangrove forests: A 3-D numerical approach
Journal ArticleDOI
A coupled model of submerged vegetation under oscillatory flow using Navier–Stokes equations
TL;DR: In this article, the IH-2VOF model is extended to solve the Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes equations including the presence of a vegetation field by means of a drag force.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale 3-D experiments of wave and current interaction with real vegetation. Part 2: Experimental analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of vegetation density and biomass on wave attenuation in salt marshes was evaluated and shown that higher vegetation density leads to higher attenuation rates for both species.
