2011年3月11日太平洋大地震后发生的东日本大海啸造成了巨大的生命损失和广泛的社会经济破坏。据报失踪或死亡的人数约为20,000人(Mimura等人,2011; Mori等人,2011).减少海啸破坏的缓解技术大致分为人工方法,包括防护措施或海啸闸门和自然方法(Tanaka等人,2014年)。人工方法在日本已经使用了几十年,在保护沿海地区方面发挥了重要作用。然而,这些方法的建造和维护成本很高,并且涉及改变环境和给当地居民带来不便。因此,不建议仅使用人工方法来保护沿海地区和未来的海岸管理(Harada和Kawata,2004年)。当然,在沿海人口密集地区的滨水区附近没有足够的备用土地来部署这种自然方法的地区,人工措施总是唯一可用的选择。相反,100多年前,日本就讨论了利用沿海植被作为自然减灾方法的问题(本田,1898年)。
The Great East Japan tsunami that occurred following a gigantic earthquake in the Pacific on March 11, 2011, caused considerable loss of life and widespread socioeconomic damage. The number of individuals reported missing or killed is approximately 20,000 (Mimura et al., 2011; Mori et al., 2011).Mitigation techniques to reduce tsunami damage are broadly categorized into artificial methods including embankments or tsunami gates and natural methods (Tanaka et al., 2014). Artificial methods are employed in Japan for several decades and play an important role in protecting coastal areas. However, these methods are costly to construct and maintain, and they involve modifying the environment and inconvenience to the local population. Therefore, the use of only artificial methods for the protection of coastal areas and future coast management is not recommended (Harada and Kawata, 2004). Of course, in regions where enough spare lands do not exist for deployment of such natural methods close to water fronts of populated coastal areas, artificial measures invariably represent the only option available. Conversely, the use of coastal vegetation as a natural method for disaster mitigation was discussed in Japan more than 100 years ago (Honda, 1898).
