  • Effects of Wave Nonlinearity and Vertical Variation of Vegetation Density on Wave Attenuation

    Creator:
    Wu, Wei-Cheng
    Abstract:
    The understanding and prediction how coastal wetland vegetation attenuates wave action has received renewed attention with global climate change impacts and increasing populations on coastlines. Conventional attenuation models utilize empirical drag coefficients, but these coefficients exhibit a wide range of values, and there is some uncertainty in the relative importance...
