Predictions of wave heights in the lagoon of flic-en-flac, under sea level rise projections for the mean and extreme wave climates using the swan spectral model
Flic and Flac beach is one of the most touristic beaches in Mauritius. It has a coral reef that at present provides shelter to the coast. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of the sea level rise due to climate change on the beach to determine possible management policies.
