Tidal marshes and mangroves are increasingly valued for nature-based mitigation of coastal
storm impacts, such as flooding and shoreline erosion hazards, which are growing due to …

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 …

Vegetation provides habitat and nature‐based solutions to coastal flooding and erosion,
drawing significant interest in its restoration, which requires an understanding of sediment …

Laboratory experiments measured sediment deposition and turbulent kinetic energy (TKE)
in bare and vegetated channels. The model vegetation represented a mangrove …

Previous studies have demonstrated that vegetation‐generated turbulence can enhance
erosion rate and reduce the velocity threshold for erosion of non‐cohesive sediment. This …

As climate-change-driven extremes potentially make coastal areas more vulnerable,
mangroves can help sustainably protect the coasts. There is a substantial understanding of …

Mangrove trees influence their physical environment by exerting drag on tidal flows and
waves while also stabilising the sediment bed of intertidal flats. These processes influence …

Salt marshes and mangrove forests provide critical ecosystem services such as reduced
sediment erosion and increased hydrodynamic buffering. Sediment transport and …

We employed idealized numerical experiments using Delft3D to investigate how the
interactions of coalescing buoyant river plumes with mangrove vegetation affect sediment …

We investigate how the physical forcing factors of river discharge and winds affect sediment
delivery to, and retention within, mangrove-lined coastal regions. We use an idealized …
