Non‐linearity in ecosystem services: temporal and spatial variability in coastal protection
EW Koch, EB Barbier, BR Silliman… - Frontiers in Ecology …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Natural processes tend to vary over time and space, as well as between species. The
ecosystem services these natural processes provide are therefore also highly variable. It is …

Linking social, ecological, and physical science to advance natural and nature‐based protection for coastal communities
Interest in the role that ecosystems play in reducing the impacts of coastal hazards has
grown dramatically. Yet the magnitude and nature of their effects are highly context …

The power of three: coral reefs, seagrasses and mangroves protect coastal regions and increase their resilience
Natural habitats have the ability to protect coastal communities against the impacts of waves
and storms, yet it is unclear how different habitats complement each other to reduce those …

Wave and tidally driven flows in eelgrass beds and their effect on sediment suspension
JCR Hansen, MA Reidenbach - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2012 - int-res.com
Seagrass beds alter their hydrodynamic environment by inducing drag on the flow, thereby
attenuating wave energy and near-bottom currents. This alters the turbulent structure and …
