Seagrass Meadows Reduce Wind-Wave Driven Sediment Resuspension in a Sheltered Environment
Seagrass meadows are prominent in many coastal zones worldwide and significant contributors to global primary production. The large bottom roughness (or canopy) created by seagrass meadows substantially alters near-bed hydrodynamics and sediment transport. In this study, we investigate how a seagras...
