We recently completed our 1-year survey of the Living Seawall in Plymouth. Loads of life on the panels: seaweeds, periwinkles, limpets, barnacles, crabs. And also a funky newcomer - the sea squirt Ciona intestinalis. University of Plymouth Living Seawalls Natural Environment Research Council

Excited to highlight the research of Annemie Rose Janssen, a PhD candidate at Macquarie Uni, studying golden kelp's resilience to climate change & urbanisation. 🌿 Her research will uncover kelp’s potential as a nature-based solution to create resilient underwater gardens. 🌍💧

The walls of Boston Harbour are being brought to life by 2021 Earthshot Finalist, Living Seawalls in collaboration with Stone Living Lab. These panels mimic natural marine environments, transforming what once were inhospitable flood defences into thriving ecosystems.

Artificial lights can reverse shading effects from overwater structures, but their success depends on the environment 💡 In low-turbidity areas, low-intensity light mimics natural conditions, while high-intensity light promotes algal growth 🌱 🔗 doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

Winter surveys on the 'Living Seawalls in Plymouth' (18 months after installation)! Still lots of marine snails hiding on the panels, despite the cold weather and the recent storms.
