Doubling of coastal flooding frequency within decades due to sea-level rise
Global climate change drives sea-level rise, increasing the frequency of coastal flooding. In
most coastal regions, the amount of sea-level rise occurring over years to decades is …

Effects of Environmental and Climatic Changes on Coral Reef Islands
PS Kench - Annual Review of Marine Science, 2024 - annualreviews.org
Coral reef islands are low-lying, wave-deposited sedimentary landforms. Using an eco-
morphodynamic framework, this review examines the sensitivity of islands to climatic and …

Observations of wave transformation over a fringing coral reef and the importance of low‐frequency waves and offshore water levels to runup, overwash, and coastal …
Many low‐lying tropical islands are susceptible to sea level rise and often subjected to
overwash and flooding during large wave events. To quantify wave dynamics and wave …

Modeling multiple sea level rise stresses reveals up to twice the land at risk compared to strictly passive flooding methods
Planning community resilience to sea level rise (SLR) requires information about where,
when, and how SLR hazards will impact the coastal zone. We augment passive flood …

Coral restoration for coastal resilience: Integrating ecology, hydrodynamics, and engineering at multiple scales
The loss of functional and accreting coral reefs reduces coastal protection and resilience for
tropical coastlines. Coral restoration has potential for recovering healthy reefs that can …

The potential for coral reef restoration to mitigate coastal flooding as sea levels rise
The ability of reefs to protect coastlines from storm-driven flooding hinges on their capacity to
keep pace with sea-level rise. Here, we show how and whether coral restoration could …
