Mangroves for Resilience: Modelling Mangrove- Eco-Hydrogeomorphic Interactions

This is the 4th event in the ENHANCES Global Lecture Series: 'Nature-based solutions for tropical coastal protection' Date: Jan. 13, 2026 15:00 GMT Title: Mangroves for Resilience: Modelling Mangrove- Eco-Hydrogeomorphic Interactions Speaker: Dr. Sebrian Mirdeklis Beselly Putra Lecturer Water Resources Engineering Department Universitas Brawijaya Malang, Indonesia Abstract: Mangrove ecosystems are widely recognized for having highly valued multiple ecosystem services. These services, however, are often overlooked because of the lack of understanding of mangrove’s species-specific and associated eco-geomorphological dynamics. Therefore, it will lead to a limited quantification and valuation of mangrove’s functional and structural attributes. A mangrove ecosystem model capable of mechanistically simulating the feedback loop between mangrove stands and physical–environmental drivers is essentially important, specifically in the strategy of integrating mangroves as nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation and mitigation. The main objective of this lecture is to delve deeper into complex mangrove ecosystems and ecogeomorphic interactions to predict their trajectories, the possibility of modelling those utilizing a process-based model, and explore the interactions of mangrove, mudflat, and physical–environmental drivers. Following that, this lecture introduces you to a new hybrid model, so-called DFMFON, achieved by coupling mangrove individual-based and landscape-scale hydro-morphodynamic models which is capable of reproducing mangrove forest dynamics and morphodynamic delta features. To conclude, the application, limitations, and future development of process-based mangrove modelling for nature-based solutions are discussed.
