Scientists from the National University of Singapore's Experimental Marine Ecology Lab have created concrete tiles designed to mimic the natural habitats of sea creatures and installed them on seawalls around Singapore. They hope the tiles, which were designed to support marine life, will increase biodiversity on shoreline barriers constructed to defend against rising sea levels.
