This project aims to develop a novel framework for predicting the future resilience of reef-fronted coastal habitats within marine parks. Through innovative observations of reef-fronted coastal dynamics, it will quantify the relationships between coastline evolution, physical drivers, reef geomorphology, sediment supply and reef ecology. Expected outcomes include new practical tools and transferable knowledge that can identify coastal regions that are sensitive to changing environmental conditions and/or reef ecology. These tools will enable marine managers to identify areas that are most vulnerable or resilient to change, allowing prioritisation of resources, conservation efforts, restoration activities, and management interventions.

本项目旨在建立一个新的框架，用于预测海岸公园内礁前沿海栖息地的未来复原力。通过对礁前沿海动态的创新观测，将量化海岸线演变、物理驱动因素、珊瑚礁地貌、沉积物供应和珊瑚礁生态之间的关系。预期成果包括新的实用工具和可转让的知识，以确定对不断变化的环境条件和/或珊瑚礁生态敏感的沿海地区。这些工具将使海洋管理人员能够确定最易受影响或最易受变化影响的区域，从而优先考虑资源，保护工作，恢复活动和管理干预措施。
