Students at IMS’s 2016 field site will take on a big challenge in this year’s Capstone class. Led by the Piehler Lab, the class will conceive, design, build, and test a nature-based product to enhance coastal resilience. While the target product will be determined by the students during the scoping phase, opportunities such as retrofits for bulkheads, islands to provide structure and diversity on shorelines that have lost their structured habitats, and devices to ameliorate stormwater impacts are high on the list of candidate projects.  This will be fun!
