Wave dynamics alteration by discontinuous flexible mats of artificial seagrass can support seagrass restoration efforts

Abstract Seagrass restoration can be promoted through the use of artificial seagrass (ASG). However, there is no guideline for ASG design, which requires a sound understanding of the inherent hydrodynamics in a submerged environment. Present know-how primarily stems from idealized ASG attached to a...
