Coral restoration for coastal resilience: Integrating ecology, hydrodynamics, and engineering at multiple scales

Abstract 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 mitigate risks from coastal hazards and increase sustainability. However, scaling up restoration to the l...
