Abstract:
Offshore breakwaters can be effective in reducing the energy of incident waves through dissipation, refraction or reflection. Breakwaters are increasingly constructed to stabilize eroded muddy coasts, particularly in developing countries. Accumulation of fine-grained sediment and wave attenuation are two attributes of a stable muddy coast. Effective interventions in stabilizing eroded muddy coasts include two important elements: accumulation of fine-grained sediment and wave reduction. The efficacy of offshore breakwaters in stabilizing eroded muddy coasts is, however, not yet adequately understood. A crucial question needing attention is whether accumulation of fine-grained sediment and wave attenuation should be used in evaluating the efficacy of these offshore breakwaters in stabilizing eroded muddy coasts. To address this issue, a pile-rock offshore breakwater in Huong Mai, Tieu Dua of Ca Mau, Vietnam was selected as an appropriate example in this regard. Accumulation of fine-grained sediment and wave attenuation were tested as means to investigate the efficacy of the Huong Mai structure in stabilizing the eroded muddy coast. The study was undertaken using field-based measurements and semi-structured interviews in three stages between October 2016 and December 2020. We found that this structure has had limited efficacy in stabilizing the eroded muddy coast. The structure was effective in dissipating the energy of incident waves, but we found no evidence of fine-grained sediment accumulation due to an inappropriate structural design. There was also no monitoring system in place, leading to difficulties in evaluating its efficacy in terms of wave attenuation and accumulation of fine-grained sediment. The gaps between the shoreline and the structure have not been adequately explained, resulting in substantial challenges in replicating the structure elsewhere. The Huong Mai structure should be strengthened using supplementary measures and granulometric tests in order to improve the efficacy in stabilizing eroded muddy coasts. The methods in this study provide new insights in this regard.

Abstract:
The province of Fujian on China’s southeast coast is severely impacted by typhoons. Based on coastal profile monitoring and 40 years of satellite data, this paper analyzed the response of coastal profiles to natural and anthropogenic forces along the northern part of Fujian’s coast. Results indicated that the pattern of coastal evolution differed largely on cross-shore profiles and longshore coastlines. Only a few sandy coasts were severely affected by extreme weather events in summer, such as typhoons and storm surges, which may result from the wind direction relative to the coast. The cross-shore profiles changed drastically while the mean high-water coastline remained stable. In contrast, anthropogenic forces had a dual effect due to artificial sand extraction and reclamation. Artificial sand extraction usually occurred on sandy coasts, resulting in a decrease in some local surface profiles of tens of centimeters to metres in two years. Reclamation had the main impact on muddy coasts, especially in bays, causing seaward progradation during the past 40 years. The impacts of human activities on muddy coasts were far greater than natural factors. Findings from our coastal monitoring study for both sandy and muddy coasts provide an important scientific basis for practical applications, such as Fujian coastal protection, coastal zone exploitation, and utilization planning.

Abstract:
Threats to beaches have accelerated the coastal destruction. In recent decades, geotextile tubes were used around the world to prevent coastal erosion, to encourage beach nourishment, and to assist mangrove rehabilitation. However, the applications of geotextile tube in sandy and muddy coasts have different concerns as the geological settings are different. Applications of geotextile tubes in sandy beaches were mainly to prevent coastline from further erosion and to nourish the beach. However, for the muddy coasts, mangrove rehabilitation and conservation were additional concerns in coastal management schemes. The mangrove forests are natural barriers which can be found on the muddy coasts of many tropical countries. In this paper, the viability of geotextile tubes in sandy and muddy beaches was analysed. The advantages and disadvantages of the utilization of geotextile tubes in coastal management were discussed based on the experiences from the tropical countries such as Mexico, Malaysia, and Thailand. From the case studies, impressive improvements in coastal restoration after installation of geotextile tubes were shown. Based on the discussion, several recommendations to improve the application of geotextile tubes were suggested in this paper.

Abstract:
Abstract Hydrographic echosounder has been the standard instrument that provides a measure of water depths. In a muddy environment, this detection is not as straightforward as it seems; low gradient of acoustic impedance presence within the water-sediment interface resulting in vertical separation of liquid-solid boundary detected by different frequencies of depth sounding system. In this study, we investigate the depths measured by a dual-frequency hydrographic echosounder in a muddy environment, coupled with a simultaneous probing of the water-seabed interface by means of a free-falling cone penetrometer. We intend to understand the extent of the uncertainty of a depth-sounding system to precisely locate the liquid-solid boundary within the water-seabed interface, specifically at Patimban coasts, situated in the north coast part of Java Island, where muddy sediments dominate the seabed. From our investigation, we found that standard high-frequency sounding (200 kHz) underestimates the physical depth by 0.26 ± 0.17 m, while standard low-frequency sounding (24 kHz) overestimates the physical depth by 0.23 ± 0.19 m and tends to give inconsistent measures. Our study suggests the importance of considering these measures of discrepancy when depth sounding is being carried out in a muddy environment.

Abstract:
Mangrove-dominated muddy coasts have been allocated for developing livelihood models, particularly in developing countries. Uncontrolled allocation causes the mangrove forests to be vulnerable and even severely eroded. Restoration of vulnerable and eroded coastal areas has been merely conservation-driven, leaving livelihood-oriented mangrove forests unprotected. As a consequence, mangrove-dominated muddy coasts have not been well-protected. How livelihood-oriented mangrove forests are configured towards protecting coasts and protecting local livelihoods remains a challenge. This study employed a critical review for addressing this matter. The results reveal that there is limited practical knowledge of configuring livelihood-oriented models for protecting the coasts. The configuration process reported in this study is merely based on technical recommendations in South East Asia to date. The recommended configuration commences with the first stage of voluntarily designating a certain percentage of allocated forests on the seaward side to protect coasts, relocating livelihood models in the gaps among current stands of mangrove forests landward. Abandoned ponds are ecologically restored using sediment trapping structures for providing suitable substrate for promoting regrowth of local mangrove species as the second stage, followed by designation of an appropriate percentage as mangrove belts on the seaward side. The two-step configuration is highly likely to be replicable and applicable nationally and regionally due to full consideration of different political, sociocultural, and environmental characteristics in Vietnam and Indonesia.

Abstract:
This dissertation explores the growing field of study around Maritime Security. While an increasingly common sub-heading in American naval strategy documents, maritime security operations are largely framed around individual threats (i.e. counter-piracy, counter-terrorism, counter-narcotics). Here, we endeavor to explore how a seemingly disparate set of transnational issues fit into a more coherent framework to give greater theoretical substance to the notion of Maritime Security as a distinct concept. In particular, we examine, as our research question, whether the Broken Windows theory, a criminological construct of social disorganization, provides the lens through which to theorize maritime security in the littorals. By extrapolating from criminology, this dissertation engages with a small but growing impulse in studies on insurgencies, terrorism, and piracy to look beyond classic theories of security to better understand phenomena of political violence. To evaluate our research question, we begin by identifying two critical components of the Broken Windows theory, multidimensionality and context specificity. Multidimensionality refers to the web of interrelated individuals, organizations, and infrastructure upon which crime operates. Context specificity refers to the powerful influence of an individual or community's environment on behavior. These two themes, as explored in this dissertation, are brought into stark relief through an application of the Broken Windows theory. Leveraging this understanding of the theory, we explore our research question by employing process-tracing and detailed descriptions across three case studies (one primary and two illustrative)—the Caribbean Basin, the Gulf of Guinea, and the Straits of Malacca and Singapore. In so doing, we demonstrate how applying the lens that Broken Windows provides yields new and interesting perspectives on maritime security. As a consequence, this dissertation offers an example of a theoretical framework that provides greater continuity to the missions or threats frequently binned under the heading of maritime security, but infrequently associated with one another in the literature.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to develop and examine the use of backscatter data collected with multibeam sonar (MBS) systems for benthic habitat mapping. Backscatter data were collected from six sites around the Australian coastal zone using the Reson SeaBat 8125 MBS system operating at 455 kHz. Benthic habitats surveyed in this study included: seagrass meadows, rhodolith beds, coral reef, rock, gravel, sand, muddy sand, and mixtures of those habitats. Methods for processing MBS backscatter data were developed for the Coastal Water Habitat Mapping (CWHM) project by a team from the Centre for Marine Science and Technology (CMST). The CMST algorithm calculates the seafloor backscatter strength derived from the peak and integral (or average) intensity of backscattered signals for each beam. The seafloor backscatter strength estimated from the mean value of the integral backscatter intensity was shown in this study to provide an accurate measurement of the actual backscatter strength of the seafloor and its angular dependence. However, the seafloor backscatter strength derived from the peak intensity was found to be overestimated when the sonar insonification area is significantly smaller than the footprint of receive beams, which occurs primarily at oblique angles. The angular dependence of the mean backscatter strength showed distinct differences between hard rough substrates (such as rock and coral reef), seagrass, coarse sediments and fine sediments. The highest backscatter strength was observed not only for the hard and rough substrate, but also for marine vegetation, such as rhodolith and seagrass. The main difference in acoustic backscatter from the different habitats was the mean level, or angle-average backscatter strength. However, additional information can also be obtained from the slope of the angular dependence of backscatter strength.It was shown that the distribution of the backscatter. The shape parameter was shown to relate to the ratio of the insonification area (which can be interpreted as an elementary scattering cell) to the footprint size rather than to the angular dependence of backscatter strength. When this ratio is less than 5, the gamma shape parameter is very similar for different habitats and is nearly linearly proportional to the ratio. Above a ratio of 5, the gamma shape parameter is not significantly dependent on the ratio and there is a noticeable difference in this parameter between different seafloor types. A new approach to producing images of backscatter properties, introduced and referred to as the angle cube method, was developed. The angle cube method uses spatial interpolation to construct a three-dimensional array of backscatter data that is a function of X-Y coordinates and the incidence angle. This allows the spatial visualisation of backscatter properties to be free from artefacts of the angular dependence and provides satisfactory estimates of the backscatter characteristics.Using the angle-average backscatter strength and slope of the angular dependence, derived by the angle cube method, in addition to seafloor terrain parameters, habitat probability and classification maps were produced to show distributions of sand, marine vegetation (e.g. seagrass and rhodolith) and hard substrate (e.g. coral and bedrock) for five different survey areas. Ultimately, this study demonstrated that the combination of high-resolution bathymetry and backscatter strength data, as collected by MBS, is an efficient and cost-effective tool for benthic habitat mapping in costal zones.

Abstract:
The literature showed that local knowledge and scientific knowledge, when integrated adequately and properly, produce enormous benefits for natural resource management in comparison to the different knowledge systems being applied independently. Muddy coasts, characterised primarily by fine-grained sedimentary deposits, have been over-exploited or increasingly made vulnerable to climate change, storm surge, and sea level rise. Both scientific knowledge and local knowledge systems have been used in mangrove dominated muddy coast management. Both systems, each having advantages, have had limited success in mangrove dominated muddy coast management, with a low level of local involvement, and minimal integration of the different knowledge systems. A question is whether or not sustainable management of mangrove dominated muddy coasts can be sustainably managed by integration of local and scientific knowledge with a high level of participation. The overall aim of this research is to identify mechanisms for integrating local and scientific knowledge for managing mangrove dominated muddy coasts in a sustainable way. The mechanisms identified address the adverse effects of climate change using sustainable management of mangrove dominated muddy coasts, while protecting local livelihoods. The field research was undertaken in Kien Giang, Vietnam and Brebes Regency, Indonesia between May 2013 and May 2016. The research applied mixed methods (survey methods and participatory action research methods) to achieve the overall aim. The term 'scientific knowledge' as used in this thesis is scientific understanding of coastal dynamics, published sources of information, the results of the previous studies in Kien Giang Province, and conventional practices or management policies issued by government agencies. Local knowledge is built up over generations by those living near the site in question. The mixed method approach contributes greatly to developing a more complete picture of human activities and coastal management, thereby, achieving research goals in a timely manner. Scientific understanding was use to systematically collate, link and justify local knowledge for investigating the relationship between human activities and coastal erosion. Improper technical guidance on the configuration of mangrove allocations, mangrove protection and afforestation methodologies, and permitted thinning and selective harvests led to the creation of substantial gaps and disconnections in the established mangroves, making the entire coastline vulnerable to coastal erosion and degradation. Poor aquaculture pond construction, poor construction of new and upgraded sections of the sea dyke system, mangrove afforestation using only a single species, mangrove cutting for commercial and domestic uses, and construction of local boating channels, although not recognised locally as significant contributors to coastal erosion, have jeopardised the structural integrity of the mangroves and contributed to coastal erosion. The interaction of anthropogenic activities and physical processes are significant contributors to erosion. In the second case, local knowledge was brought together with relevant scientific knowledge into developing ecologically based, cost effective strategies for successfully controlling coastal erosion in Kien Giang Province, Vietnam. Ecologically based and cost-effective strategies included seven different types of Melaleuca fences, a method of gradual expansion with ten treatments constructed gradually over time and ecological mangrove restoration using five local mangrove species for transplantation. Developed from the results and conclusions from the research activities in Kien Giang, a six stage practical framework adds a new dimension to the literature in relation to the integration of local and scientific knowledge in natural resource management. While the integrated knowledge was a new knowledge in the current integration frameworks and was made available for local use, in the framework proposed in this research, detailed consideration of the successes and failures in relation to the application of the product of different knowledge systems in the local context provides new knowledge, adding to the production of different knowledge systems. In addition, the integration framework promotes a high level of integration of local and scientific knowledge, local ownership, and sustainability that are the ultimate objectives that development projects are seeking, and assists in overcoming the challenges facing the current management strategies for managing mangrove dominated muddy coasts sustainably. The framework was applied in Brebes Regency, Indonesia for investigating its current strategies for managing mangrove dominated muddy coasts. Inefficient nursery operation, wrong choice of mangrove species, improper afforestation techniques, and poor coastal protection measures contributed to limited success in coastal erosion control in Brebes. Inadequate monitoring and evaluation of coastal protection program resulted in significant challenges for further mangrove afforestation. Lessons from the mistakes were not learnt, leading to failures being repeated and ineffective management of the eroding muddy coasts in Brebes. Likewise, the results of the previous chapters and the practical framework were applied for developing sustainable management of mangrove dominated muddy coasts in Kien Giang and Brebes. In Kien Giang, sustainable management of mangrove dominated muddy coasts in Kien Giang is guaranteed using the current 30/70 mangrove allocation policy and developing and implementing technical guidelines for allocated and private mangrove areas. The 30 (use) /70 (protection) configuration of mangrove areas for allocated mangrove areas and the 70 (maximum use) / 30 (minimum protection) for private coast lands in Kien Giang, if undertaken properly, would assist significantly in establishing a continuous mangrove belt along the Kien Giang coastline. In Brebes, the strategic plan for establishing a continuous mangrove belts for adaptation to climate change and livelihood protection includes restoration of abandoned ponds, stabilisation of two delta areas, and configuration of active ponds at a ratio of (at most) 80 % (on the landward side for aquaculture activities) / (at least) 20 % (on the seaward side for voluntary mangrove establishment). Although not ideal, twenty percent is the minimum that the communities were willing to designate to voluntarily establish mangrove areas for protection. In summary, the research achieved successfully the overall aims and objectives and reasonably answered the research questions. Significantly, the framework developed in this research provides theoretical and practical contributions to the literature regarding the integration of local and scientific knowledge in natural resource management. The framework contributes to overcoming the challenges that development projects face, and also contributes to developing sustainable management processes for the mangrove dominated muddy coasts of Kien Giang, Vietnam and Brebes Regency, Indonesia.

Abstract:
It is well known that surface water waves interact with fluid mud on the sea bed. Wave mud interaction results in high wave energy dissipation and mud mass transport. This kind of wave energy dissipation, which generally is much more significant than wave dissipation due to bottom friction, should be considered in the simulation of wave evolution and transformation in muddy coastal environments. In this research, a two-dimensional horizontal wave propagation and morphodynamic model for muddy coasts was developed. The model can be applied on a general three dimensional bathymetry of a soft muddy coast to calculate wave damping, fluid mud transport and resulting bathymetry change under wave action. In addition to the effect of wave-mud interaction on wave propagation, the dissipation due to wave-mud interaction was also implemented in SWAN (a third generation numerical model for Simulating WAves Nearshore) using a multilayered wave mud interaction model. These two models combined can be used for generation and propagation of waves in muddy coastal areas. The nonlinear constitutive equations of the visco-elastic-plastic model are adopted for the rheological behavior of fluid mud in this research. The results of the numerical model are compared against a series of wave-basin experiments, wave flume experiments and field observations. Comparisons between the simulated results with the both field and laboratory data reveal the capability of the proposed model to predict the wave transformation and mud mass transport.
