Numerical modelling of the impact of coral reef degradation and sea level rise on coastal protection at The Buccoo Reef, Tobago: implications for reef restoration and management st... by Avinash Boodoo, Deborah Villarroel-Lamb

“…Using various SLR scenarios, wave heights showed increases over baseline conditions between 160.5% and 388.4% for increases in sea level from 0.25 m to 1.00 m. The results highlight the importance of the frictional dissipation provided by healthy coral reefs, with degraded corals and rising sea levels leading to substantial increases in nearshore wave heights which could exacerbate issues such as coastal erosion and flooding. …”
