Experimental and numerical modeling of wave height attenuation by emergent coastal vegetation

Creator:

Blackmar, Philip James

Abstract:

Coastal vegetation dampens waves which can provide benefits to the local area, but existing literature shows large variations in the degree of wave height attenuation depending on plant properties and wave conditions. Better knowledge of how to predict the wave height decay accurately in different types of vegetation may help...
