Reef design and site hydrodynamics mediate oyster restoration and marsh stabilization outcomes

Emory H. Wellman et al.

Summary: To protect coastal areas and minimize the negative ecological impacts of artificial shoreline protection methods, the use of natural and nature-based infrastructure (NNBI) is recommended. By studying reefs constructed from different substrates in varying environmental conditions, it was found that oyster-based NNBI provided shoreline protection in high-energy environments but not in low-energy environments. Both high-energy and low-energy shorelines experienced retreat and decline in marsh vegetation density.

Modeling Decadal Salt Marsh Development: Variability of the Salt Marsh Edge Under Influence of Waves and Sediment Availability

P. W. J. M. Willemsen et al.

Summary: Salt marshes are important for coastal protection, and their width is crucial for their effectiveness. This study uses numerical modeling to examine how sediment availability and hydrodynamic forcing affect the retreat and expansion of salt marshes. The results show that salt marshes are sensitive to physical stress, with higher stress leading to retreat and lower stress enabling expansion. Additionally, sediment supply plays a role in determining the behavior of salt marshes forced by higher waves.

Wave attenuation through forests under extreme conditions

Bregje K. van Wesenbeeck et al.

Summary: Communities worldwide face increasing flood risk, but nature-based solutions like mangroves and riparian forests offer great potential for reducing these risks. Large-scale experiments have shown that trees can attenuate waves and reduce storm damages, even under extreme conditions. However, the application of forests in flood mitigation strategies is currently limited, and further research is needed.

To Plant or Not to Plant: When can Planting Facilitate Mangrove Restoration?

Celine E. J. van Bijsterveldt et al.

Summary: Global change processes such as sea level rise and severe storms pose threats to coastlines worldwide, necessitating interventions to protect densely-populated areas. This study examines two methods of restoring mangroves along a land-subsiding aquaculture coast, and finds that both planting and ecological restoration techniques can be effective. Satellite data shows historical mangrove expansion through planting on pond bunds, while field data suggests that natural propagules are more abundant in creek areas, indicating the potential for ecological restoration. In challenging coastal sites, a combination of ecological restoration and pioneer species planting facilitates mangrove recovery.

Living on the edge: How traits of ecosystem engineers drive bio-physical interactions at coastal wetland edges

L. G. Gillis et al.

Summary: Salt marshes and mangrove forests play important roles in providing ecosystem services and are influenced by plant and community traits. This study compared the effects of plant traits on sediment budgets in intertidal wetland edges, finding that both flexible and rigid vegetation mimics can attenuate the energy of incoming flow and provide coastal protection. Rigid vegetation mimics experienced higher velocities and turbulence, leading to local scour, while flexible mimics produced lower turbulence and deposited sediment over a shorter distance.

Contextualising shoreline protection by seagrass using lessons from submerged breakwaters

Alice J. Twomey et al.

Summary: This study explores how seagrass may affect shoreline morphodynamics and provides background on the potential of seagrass for shoreline protection. Both seagrass meadows and conventional submerged structures influence wave height and direction, but their impact on longshore sediment transport has only been considered within the context of coastal defence structures. The study suggests that seagrass has spatially heterogeneous effects on shoreline morphodynamics, providing protection in some locations while causing downstream erosion in others.

Laboratory study of wave damping by porous breakwaters on mangrove mudflats in the Mekong River Delta

Thieu Quang Tuan et al.

Summary: This paper presents a study on wave transmission at OCT (Oyster CASTLE-type) block breakwaters on mangrove mudflats. The focus is on examining the characteristics of wave transmission in relation to conditions favorable for mangrove rehabilitation in the Mekong River Delta. The study shows that porous-type structures like the OCT breakwater are more advantageous for mangrove re-colonization compared to hollow-type structures. The study emphasizes the significant role of bulk porosity in controlling wave transmission and sediment exchange.

A paradigm shift in the quantification of wave energy attenuation due to saltmarshes based on their standing biomass

Maria Maza et al.

Summary: This study experimentally investigates wave attenuation caused by different saltmarsh species and its relationship with ecosystem standing biomass. A new variable, hydraulic standing biomass (HSB), is introduced to estimate wave energy attenuation without the need for calibration. Linear fitting relationships between wave damping coefficient and HSB are obtained, enabling direct quantification of wave energy attenuation based on incident wave conditions, mean plant height, and meadow standing biomass.

Potential short wave attenuation function of disturbed mangroves

Wei Kit Lee et al.

Summary: Mangroves can protect coastal communities by attenuating incoming waves, with disturbed mangroves showing higher wave height reduction during storm events. Wave energy dissipation is mainly through vegetation drag and wave breaking, with roots playing a significant role in reducing wave heights. The findings suggest the potential of disturbed mangroves in wave attenuation and support their stronger incorporation into coastal management strategies for protecting urban communities against coastal hazards.

The effects of large-scale breakwaters on shoreline vegetation

Sara Martin et al.

Summary: The study found that large-scale breakwaters are effective in maintaining high coverage of natural marshes, but have minimal impact on shoreline plant growth. Breakwaters reduce pressure for upland migration, allowing marsh patches to expand seaward. The presence of breakwaters can help preserve fringing marsh vegetation in high wave energy environments, but adaptive management may be necessary for future effectiveness in response to sea-level rise.

Summary: Short-period ultragravity waves, although having small heights, can greatly impact the oscillation of young mangroves, potentially causing young leaves to fall. To increase the survival rate of young mangroves, installing small breakwaters to avoid short-period waves close to the natural period of oscillation of mangrove stems could be effective.

Large-scale variation in wave attenuation of oyster reef living shorelines and the influence of inundation duration

Rebecca L. Morris et al.

Summary: Oyster reef living shorelines aim to achieve sustained and adaptive coastal protection by combining ecological and engineering goals. The effectiveness of different reef designs in wave attenuation was evaluated in a large-scale comparison along the US coasts, taking into account the ecological limitations of oysters in terms of inundation duration. The research found that the reef crest elevation (freeboard) should be determined by the inundation duration requirements of oysters to optimize wave attenuation capacity.

Summary: Predicting mangrove wave attenuation is crucial for coastal flood protection, this study investigated the mechanical properties of five common mangrove species in the Pearl River Delta. Larger branch diameters result in higher mechanical strength, while larger leaf size leads to larger peak pulling forces. Species lower in the intertidal zone show stronger branches but more easily detachable leaves, potentially as a damage-avoiding strategy, with no clear effect of salinity on mangrove mechanical properties observed.

Tidal marsh restoration enhances sediment accretion and carbon accumulation in the Stillaguamish River estuary, Washington

Katrina L. Poppe et al.

Summary: The study showed that restoration of tidal marshes in the Stillaguamish River estuary in Puget Sound not only maximized carbon accumulation, but also enhanced resilience to rising sea levels. After four years, the restored marsh had slightly lower sediment carbon stocks compared to adjacent natural marshes, but had nearly twice the carbon accumulation rates due to higher rates of accretion. Elevation change rates in the restored marsh were also greater than the current rate of sea level rise.

Summary: Mangroves are increasingly recognized as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative for reducing coastal flood risk due to their functionality and persistence. However, the complex implementation of mangroves in flood risk reduction requires improving insights, advancing tools, and adopting an adaptive management approach to enhance their functionality and persistence. Further research efforts on quantifying the variability and uncertainty of mangrove functionality and persistence are necessary for successful integration into coastal flood risk management.
