Mangroves are important for coastal protection in a number of ways: “mangrove vegetation causes wave attenuation because it acts as an obstacle for the oscillatory water flow in the waves (box 2), creating drag: as the water flows around the mangrove vegetation, it has to change direction and do work against the friction of the mangrove surface”(6).

Mangroves host variety of aquatic organisms including algae, barnacles, oysters, sponges, and bryozoans which grow on and anchor to the root surface in areas where the roots of mangroves are submerged permanently in water.

Mangroves also reduce the wind speed, by attenuating the energy of the wind while passing through the dense tree cover. They act as natural buffers between the land and the sea, and apart from sequestering carbon, they also shield against riverbank erosion by stabilizing soil and sediments through organic depositions.
In addition, increasing hurricane intensity and hurricane size lower the effect of mangroves on attenuating storm surge and reducing the flooding area. The mangrove zone plays a more effective role in reducing flooding areas from hurricanes that travel from east to west than from hurricanes that travel from west to east.

Mangroves form the coastal and estuarine wetland ecosystem in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. This unique intertidal ecosystem acts as a safeguard to the coastlines from the disastrous effects of storm surges, erosion, and floods. Some mangroves occur along open coasts, subject to moderate wave.
This project role of reefs, mangroves and fisheries in reducing the role of mangroves in attenuating storm.
Mangrove forests have been proven to be an efficient system in attenuation of the wave energy. Therefore, they may be incorporated in the construction of coastal dikes and contribute to decreasing the total cost of such a project. This may be achieved by lowering the dike crest, lesser usage of the land or applying softer revetments.
Mangrove forests are one of the most significant biodiversity of intertidal zones along the subtropical and tropical coastal regions of the world. These ecosystems take the role of attenuating wave energy protect the shoreline and adjacent dependent ecosystem [1-2]. The mangrove ecosystem also plays a significant role in the biogeochemical.
Coastal defence: reducing erosion, attenuating waves and even reducing the height of the role of mangroves in climate change adaptation and disaster risk.
Mangroves with aerial roots will attenuate waves in shallow water more rapidly than those without. At greater water depths, waves may pass above aerial roots, but the lower branches can perform a similar function. The slope of the shore and the height of the waves also affect wave reduction rates through mangroves.
Due to this position at the interface between land and sea, mangroves play an important role in the attenuation of waves.
Mangroves act as a form of natural coastal defence: reducing erosion, attenuating waves (and tsunamis) and reducing the height of storm surges. They are among the most carbon-rich tropical ecosystems globally, and can contain more carbon per square metre than tropical rainforests.
To learn about mangroves, their habitat and their importance for coastal protection, and to get insight in all possible features of mangroves and mangrove forests.
This report focuses on mangrove forests and the role they can play in the report begins by reviewing the capacity of mangroves to attenuate wind and swell.

Better connecting mangrove ecosystems with the role they play in the global carbon cycle and climate system could change the role of mangroves in climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction should be integrated in local and the key role of mangroves as carbon stores and sinks needs.
This, rather than the mangroves themselves, was the most significant factor determining the extent of damage and loss of life. But it also pays to consider alternatives, although often these are not without their own limitations.
The mangroves were found to be effective in reducing wave heights at the port behind the island though the effectiveness is limited by its geometry and distance from the port. The presence of vegetation has a marked effect though the effect of a variation in vegetation factor is limited.

Coastal protection is another important function of mangrove forests, serving as the role of mangroves in attenuating short-period wave energy has been well.
Mangroves maintain coastal water quality by abiotic and biotic retention, removal, and cycling of nutrients, pollutants, and particulate matter from land-based sources, filtering these materials from water before they reach seaward coral reef and seagrass habitats. Mangrove root systems slow water flow, facilitating the deposition of sediment.
Mangrove ecosystems provide protection from the impacts of climate change, often for some of the world’s most vulnerable people, by attenuating wave energy and storm surges, adapting to rising sea levels, and stabilizing shorelines from erosion.
It should be noted that studies of mangrove wave attenuation have mostly been focused on smaller waves with less research on hurricane conditions and storm.

First, the mangrove forest is very effective in attenuating the short-wave energy, which is in line with previous studies about short-wave attenuation into the mangrove forests (de vos, 2004; burger, 2005; meijer, 2005). The short waves rapidly decrease after entering the mangrove forest and reduce until less than 1% of the incoming wave height is within the first 100 m, independent of the vegetation density.

Mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs work as a single system that keeps coastal zones healthy.
To persist, mangrove ecosystems must adjust to rising sea level by building vertically or become submerged. Mangroves may directly or indirectly influence soil accretion processes through the production and accumulation of organic matter, as well as the trapping and retention of mineral sediment.
