North America’s first-ever “Living Seawalls” panels were installed by the Stone Living Lab at two locations on Boston Harbor this month. The panels are specially designed to create habitat for marine life to flourish on what would otherwise be inhospitable flood barriers.
This fall, Boston will experience a spectacular tidal event: the Perigean Spring Tides (also called King Tides). These “wicked high tides” result in high tides that are 2-4 feet higher than normal. This natural phenomenon occurs a few times each year, and gives us a window into how sea level rise will soon start affecting our daily lives.
