  1. Florida International University: Researchers install 3D-printed seawall tiles to support coastal protection and marine life. “The system uses modular, interlocking tiles that can be attached to existing seawalls. Each tile is robotically printed and designed with grooves, ridges, crevices and small pools that create more complex surfaces for marine organisms to attach, shelter and grow.”

  2. Coastal erosion emergency in #Lancelin WA - and locals are left to fundraise $150k for a seawall themselves!
    The beach has lost 50m in just 15 months, with a hotel, pub & caravan park now at risk. Nearly $90k raised in 2 weeks by the community, but locals say the state govt is "missing in action".

    When does community fundraising become a national disgrace?

    The Caspian Sea coastline is known for its dramatic limestone formations, rugged shores, and crystal-clear waters. Along the rocky coast, visitors can discover hidden bays and natural pools carved by wind and waves over many years. One of the most interesting features of this coastline is the presence of natural rock pools. These small basins collect seawater and create calm, transparent pools surrounded by limestone formations. The water often appears bright turquoise under sunny skies. […]
