This project will develop a modeling tool and guidance documents for forecasting long term coral reef dynamics as a Natural and Nature Based Feature (NNBF). The project will help promote the design and implementation of coral reefs as NNBFs and facilitate their successful incorporation into USACE Coastal Storm Risk Management and restoration studies.
