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 strategies
Coral reefs provide natural coastal protection through depth-induced wave breaking and frictional dissipation on the fore reef, the reef crest, and the back reef. The coral reef roughness is a significant factor in wave attenuation through frictional dissipation and is directly linked to the reef’s...
