Integration of mangroves in projects to reduce coastal flood risk is increasingly being
recognised as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative. In addition to the construction of …

Coastal dunes are often the first and only line of physical defense for communities subjected
to damaging storms and waves. Planting vegetation on them has been proposed as one …

We present a critical analysis of experimental findings on vegetation–flow–sediment
interactions obtained through both laboratory and field experiments on tidal and coastal …

This paper examines the role of mangrove pneumatophore roots as a spatial control over
the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation rate within a natural mangrove forest …

Mangrove forests are valuable coastal ecosystems that have been shown to persist on
muddy intertidal flats through bio‐morphodynamic feedbacks. However, the role of coastal …

Mangroves have been shown to protect shorelines against damage from the combined
hydrodynamic forces of waves and tides, owing to the presence of roots (pneumatophores) …

Mangroves are halophytic plants common in tropical and sub-tropical environments. Their
roots and pneumatophores strongly affect intertidal hydrodynamics and related sediment …

Arrays of real mangrove pneumatophores (ie aboveground pencil roots) and artificial dowel
mimics were constructed in a laboratory flume to examine differences in canopy flow …

Drag effects of mangrove forests with complex root systems modulate flow and substance
transport and promote sedimentation, all of which are linked to mangroves' ecosystem …

High‐resolution velocity measurements were collected within and above two dense
canopies of mangrove pneumatophore roots in a wave‐exposed mangrove forest. In both …
