Abstract
Mangroves, a major type of nature-based solution in the tropics and subtropics, were evidenced capable of reducing wave energy in tsunami and storm events. The typical species, Rhizophora with its complex root system, was found effective in wave attenuation (Tanaka et al. 2007) and was studied experimentally using artificial tree models (e.g. Maza et al. 2019). To investigate the impacts of mangrove roots on water waves at a finer scale, we conducted experiments using 3D-printed models that replicated the geometry of natural Rhizophora. This study discusses the resistance of mangrove roots and their impacts on fluid velocity and turbulence.
红树林是热带和亚热带地区以自然为基础的一种主要解决方案,已被证明能够在海啸和风暴事件中降低波浪能量。具有复杂根系的典型物种Rhizophora具有有效的波衰减作用(Tanaka et al. 2007),并使用人工树模型(如Maza et al. 2019)进行了实验研究。为了在更精细的尺度上研究红树林根系对水波的影响,我们使用3d打印模型进行了实验,这些模型复制了天然根茎草的几何形状。本研究探讨了红树林根系的阻力及其对流体速度和湍流的影响。
