Check out our new paper on a field experiment studying the critical wave conditions that lead to mechanical failure of Rhizophora stylosa mangroves! The field study tested the physical limits of mangrove resistance under wave forcing — an important step toward designing nature-based coastal defenses.

Congrats to the team! 🎉
