nope


modify the close preceding clause


a breakwater of rocks would rise  six feet above the waterline and act as a buffer


to be more specific,  the absorbing and protecting should modify the latter part of the parallel structure


(a breakwater of rocks) would act as a buffer     (provide the information that how it could act as a buffer.....absorb and protect)
