Fig. 4 — The influence of sea-level rise (SLR), RR, structural complexity (f_w), and RHI on wave height is shown for 40,000 model runs. (A) Scatterplot showing the influence of sea-level rise on normalized back-reef wave height (H_n, subscript n indicating normalized values between 0 and 1), with marker colors indicating the normalized values of structural complexity (fw_n) for the model run, with blue indicating high fw_n and red indicating low fw_n. The dashed trend line is the linear regression result where H_n = 0.81SLR − 0.06 (R² = 0.09). (B) Strong relationship between RHI and back-reef wave height with the dashed black line showing the fitted curve H_n = −0.66RHI_n + 0.66 (R² = 0.53). The dashed red line is the 1:−1 ratio shown for comparison. (C) Distribution of H_n due to changes in f_w and RR.
