U-LINK

The University of Miami (UM) Laboratory for INtegrative Knowledge (U-LINK) - Phase II project, entitled “Identifying, prioritizing, and validating green infrastructure approaches to enhance coastal resilience” aims to enhance shoreline protection against wave action and storm surge using artificial reefs and corals. The project includes laboratory testing of artificial coral reefs in the SUrge STructure Atmosphere INteraction (SUSTAIN) Facility, as well as the implementation of a data-driven test bed offshore of North Beach Oceanside Park.
