This project aims to develop a novel framework for predicting how artificial reef structures can be optimally designed to protect coastlines from erosion and flooding. It will develop new theory and models to quantify how waves interact with complex reef structures to reduce wave heights and extreme water levels at the shoreline. Expected outcomes include new practical tools and design guidelines that can be adopted by coastal engineers and managers to maximise coastal protection by reefs. This will boost Australia’s capacity to protect populations and critical infrastructure from coastal hazards and support Australian industries to lead the international development of innovative nature-based coastal protection strategies.

该项目旨在开发一个新的框架，用于预测人工鱼礁结构如何优化设计，以保护海岸线免受侵蚀和洪水的影响。它将开发新的理论和模型，以量化波浪如何与复杂的珊瑚礁结构相互作用，以减少海岸线的波高和极端水位。预期成果包括新的实用工具和设计指南，可供沿海工程师和管理人员采用，以最大限度地利用珊瑚礁保护沿海地区。这将提高澳大利亚保护人口和重要基础设施免受沿海灾害影响的能力，并支持澳大利亚工业界领导国际上制定基于自然的创新性沿海保护战略。
