Abstract: Haefliger cohomology characterizes taut foliated manifolds by Haefliger's theorem. We show that Haefliger cohomology characterizes strongly tense foliated manifolds, namely, foliated manifolds which admit a Riemannian metric such that the mean curvature form of the leaves is closed and basic. We show that Haefliger cohomology is dual to invariant cohomology for complete Riemannian foliations. As an application of these results, we prove that any complete Riemannian foliation is strongly tense, which is a generalization of Dom'{i}nguez's tenseness theorem for Riemannian foliations on closed manifolds.
