Coral reefs serve as a first line of defense against storm-related hazards in coastal communities, but the ability of reefs to buffer impacts of waves on shorelines depends on the maintenance of a structurally complex reef surface and continued reef accretion, particularly as sea-level rise accelerates in the future. Unfortunately, recent studies have shown that growth of Florida’s reefs has
