Dimitris Dermentzoglou, PhD student in Coastal Engineering, is investigating whether salt marshes can serve as a natural solution for coastal protection. It is why he mimics salt marsh vegetation at the TU Delft Waterlab. He hopes his research will yield a more sustainable alternative to the repeated raising of dikes.
I mean, I’d expect planting real grass to be a lot easier than building 50k rubber grass blades by hand shrug
Haha, yes, this is a model simulation. :)
