Storm Surge Reduction by Mangroves

Background

Flooding and wave energy from storm surges can damage infrastructure and harm inhabitants of coastal communities. Climate change and sea level rise have the potential to increase or intensify storm surges, which necessitate investment in coastal defenses and disaster risk reduction. Mangroves can reduce the effects of storm surges through attenuating waves and wind, making mangroves an important form of nature-based protection for coastal communities.

Valuing the Role of Mangroves in Storm Damage Reduction in Coastal Areas of Odisha

Background

Building resilience has become a significant concern for coastal communities due to future sea level rise and more frequent tropical storms caused by climate change. Mangroves can provide coastal resilience by reducing lives lost and property damage from tropical storms. These benefits demonstrate how including these ecosystem services in sustainable land use planning could be an economically viable coastal resilience strategy.
