Employing coastal vegetation to maintain a bioshield as the first buffer line to reduce coastal risks has been admitted as a promising coastal protection solution (Mazda, 1997; Tang et al...

... ABSTRACT Vegetation has great influence on flow structure and sediment transport, which will further affect the pollution diffusion and the eco-system. Laboratory experiments were carried out in this paper to investigate the effects of submerged rigid vegetation on sediment transport under...

... ABSTRACT Dynamic characteristics and wave attenuation mechanism of flexible vegetation is fundamental to ocean engineering and nature-based coastal defense solutions. Based on simulation results by the flexible vegetation dynamic model, relative water depth, wave height, wave period...

These vegetation can effectively restore the coastal wetland ecosystem, and play an important role in maintaining coastal biodiversity, purifying water quality, reducing soil salinity and other aspects. Meanwhile...

... protection. The SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) model has achieved good simulating results on vegetation-induced wave dissipation in the condition of pure waves, while the effects of the tidal currents are ignored. A revised formula based on Hu Suzuki, Zitman, Uittewaal and Stive (2014) formulation...

Numerous studies have shown that vegetation canopies on the intertidal...

... Abstract A physical model experiment based on a 1:10 model scale is performed to test the wave absorbing ability of vegetation on a revetment. In this test, the vegetation arrangement, trees rows, submerged depth and different planting locations are considered to analyze the absorbing effect...

... ABSTRACT Based on existing wave dissipation model by vegetation, a kind of forced vibration with damping model is used to take care of the vegetation swaying in the water waves with different wave parameters. By introducing the factor D as the concession to the wave force, the drag coefficient...

... ABSTRACT It is well known that sediment movement is affected by aquatic vegetation under flow and wave conditions. However this impact is not fully understood yet. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of emergent vegetation on suspended sediment flux under wave conditions...

... ABSTRACT: In this paper the effects of layered coastal vegetation on long wave (solitary wave) propagation were investigated experimentally in a long wave flume. This layering vegetation is represented by an open gap in a patch of vegetation that lies perpendicular to the flow direction...

ABSTRACT: Joint numerical and experimental studies were carried out to examine the potential mitigating capabilities of beach vegetations on runup and inundation caused by long waves such as tsunamis and storm surges. Three tropical species of vegetation, namely, Akiaki (a salt tolerant grass...
