Tanner Jernigan demonstrated incredible bravery while conducting research at Tybee Island. He noticed three children playing in the surf as a large vessel approached. They were caught in a strong tide & pulled farther out. Without hesitation, Jernigan dove in to rescue them.

ERDC researchers supported beach landing operations during Balikatan, an annual exercise with the U.S. and Philippine military. The innovative technology, Submersible Matting (SUBMAT), was used to get heavy military vehicles from ship to shore without getting stuck.

An ERDC team recently assembled a robotic arm to process dredged sediment into complex structures. The geometric shape, an initial “oyster dome”, can be post-processed into hard substrate to allow both colonization by marine organisms & energy dissipation for coastal resilience.
