van Bijsterveldt, Celine E.J. (author), Debrot, Adolphe O. (author), Bouma, Tjeerd J. (author), Maulana, Moch B. (author), Pribadi, Rudhi (author), Schop, Jessica (author), Tonneijck, Femke H. (author), van Wesenbeeck, B (author)Global change processes such as sea level rise and the increasing frequency of severe storms threaten many coastlines around the world and trigger the need for interventions to make these often densely-populated areas safer. Mangroves could be implemented in Nature-Based Flood Defense, provided that we know how to conserve and restore these...journal article 2022

Phan, M.H. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)Mangroves play an important role in sustaining a healthy coastal environment, providing a natural habitat to various species, a stable shoreline and forestry products. However, the extent of mangroves developed along the tidal coast of the Mekong delta in southern Vietnam has faced and still faces the impact from both natural and...journal article 2022

Best, U.S.N. (author), van der Wegen, Mick (author), Dijkstra, Jasper (author), Reyns, J.A.H. (author), van Prooijen, Bram (author), Roelvink, D. (author)Coastal mangroves, thriving at the interface between land and sea, provide robust flood risk reduction. Projected increases in the frequency and magnitude of climate impact drivers such as sea level rise and wind and wave climatology reinforce the need to optimize the design and functionality of coastal protection works to increase resilience....journal article 2022

Dào, H.T. (author)In the past decade the role of wooden fences, containing brushwood and branches, in efforts to restoring mangroves has been recognized since a vast reduction of mangroves occurred along the Mekong deltaic coast. This study aims to better understand the hydrodynamic performance related to the possible mechanism of wave reduction and the influence...doctoral thesis 2021

Gijsman, R. (author), Horstman, E.M. (author), Willemsen, P.W.J.M. (author), Swales, A. (author), Wijnberg, K.M. (author)Mangrove seedling establishment is crucial to the long-term development of mangrove forests. This study incorporates a process-based approach for seedling establishment in a process-based hydrodynamic model. The biophysical model is used to simulate seedling establishment in the Firth of Thames estuary (New Zealand). The results are compared to...conference paper 2021

(author)Mangrove vegetation constitutes a natural coastal defence against waves and erosion. Despite their protective role, mangrove ecosystems have experienced continuous degradation over the last decades due to human causes. At retreating mangrove coastlines, bamboo structures are built to create new habitat for mangrove colonization. Existing...journal article 2021

Beselly, S.M. (author), van der Wegen, Mick (author), Grueters, Uwe (author), Reyns, J.A.H. (author), Dijkstra, Jasper (author), Roelvink, D. (author)This article presents a novel approach to explore mangrove dynamics on a prograding delta by integrating unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and satellite imagery. The Porong Delta in Indonesia has a unique geographical setting with rapid delta development and expansion of the mangrove belt. This is due to an unprecedented mud load from the LUSI...journal article 2021

Gijón Mancheño, A. (author), Herman, P.M.J. (author), Jonkman, Sebastiaan N. (author), Kazi, Swarna (author), Urrutia, Ignacio (author), van Ledden, Mathijs (author)Mangroves protect coastal areas against hazards like storms or cyclones by attenuating waves and currents, and by trapping floating debris during extreme events. Bangladesh is a very vulnerable country to floods and cyclones, and part of its coastal system is thus being upgraded to a higher safety standard. These upgrades include embankment...journal article 2021

van Bijsterveldt, Celine E.J. (author), van Wesenbeeck, B (author), van der Wal, Daphne (author), Afiati, Norma (author), Pribadi, Rudhi (author), Brown, Benjamin (author), Bouma, Tjeerd J. (author)Globally, erosion of muddy tropical coasts that are dominated by aquaculture ponds, is an increasing problem. Restoration of mangrove greenbelts may counteract such erosion, by restoring the sediment balance. Hence, we aim to unravel the processes controlling natural mangrove regeneration in both “landward” (i.e., into aquaculture ponds) and...journal article 2020

(author), Tonneijck, Femke H. (author)Mangrove-mud coasts across the world erode because of uninformed management, conversion of mangrove forests into aquaculture ponds, development of infrastructure and urbanization, and/or extraction of groundwater inducing land subsidence. The accompanied loss of ecosystem values, amongst which safety against flooding, has far reaching...journal article 2020

Phan Khanh, L. (author)This study explores the influence of the wave characteristics on the attenuation process of waves through coastal mangroves, which are threatened by the coastal mangrove squeeze phenomenon. Coastal mangrove squeeze is the phenomenon where coastal regions, even when sediment availability is sufficient, are eroding due to a lack of accommodation...doctoral thesis 2019

Verhagen, H.J. (author)In this paper, protection options for a high-value, industrial area along the coast of West Bengal (India) are investigated. The options are designed to protect against cyclone surges with a probability of 1/100 per year. Two alternatives are compared, a classical solution of a dike with a revetment and a solution with a mangrove belt in...journal article 2019

Truong Hong, S. (author)Mangroves are an interesting species of vegetation, surviving and thriving at the interface of land and water, in the inter tidal brackish coastal waters between the mean sea level and mean high water. Mangroves are a highly productive and complex ecosystem, providing numerous services and goods to people and marine environment. Mangroves are...doctoral thesis 2018

Harihar, S. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)Mangroves have proved to be an asset to coastlines owing to their various advantages in terms of coastal protection and stability. Along tropical coastlines, as mangrove tracts recede and threats of coastal erosion mount, mangrove rehabilitation projects are being seriously contemplated. The design of such projects, however, is in an incipient...journal article 2017

(author)In this paper the typical hydrodynamics on mangrove-mud coasts are studied. Worldwide, these coasts experience serious erosion problems, and while the importance of mangrove ecosystems is becoming widely recognised, mangrove restoration projects frequently fail due to poor understanding of the system, especially the hydrodynamics. Therefore, a...abstract 2017

(author)Mangroves are extremely important from the ecological and socio-economic perspectives, but are degrading at an alarming rate nowadays. Besides direct clearance, hydrological alterations or climatic changes, chemical pollution could be a significant contributor of mangrove degradation.

(author)Indonesia is home to the largest area of mangrove forests in the world. Urban expansion, aquaculture farms, oil-palm plantations and timber extraction have caused an estimated decline of about 1.2 million hectares of Indonesias mangroves since the 1980s, and currently only 3 million hectares remain. The major cause of mangrove conversion is...report 2014
