Numerical modelling of the impact of coral reef degradation and sea level rise on coastal protection at The Buccoo Reef, Tobago: implications for reef restoration and management st... by Avinash Boodoo, Deborah Villarroel-Lamb

“…The results highlight the importance of the frictional dissipation provided by healthy coral reefs, with degraded corals and rising sea levels leading to substantial increases in nearshore wave heights which could exacerbate issues such as coastal erosion and flooding. Management strategies such as Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) and innovative approaches such as the deployment of artificial reefs which are specifically designed to replicate the complex structure and roughness of natural reefs can contribute to wave attenuation by frictional dissipation.…”

Capturing spatiotemporal variation in salt marsh belowground biomass, a key resilience metric, through geoinformatics by Kyle D. Runion, Deepak R. Mishra, Merryl Alber, Mark A. Lever, Jessica L. O'Connell

“…We used the BERM machine learning algorithms to evaluate how variables relating to biological, climatic, hydrologic, and physical attributes covaried with these BGB observations. Flooding frequency and intensity were most influential in predicting BGB, with predictor variables related to hydrology composing 61% of the total feature importance in the BERM framework. …”
