Project leader Gabriel Cira leads the work crew taking a prototype Emerald Tutu to be deployed into Chelsea Creek, which leads to Boston Harbor, in Boston, Massachusetts, U.S., July 12, 2022. The Emerald Tutu project is testing small floating islands, with marsh grasses growing above the waterline and seaweed below, that could be deployed in larger networks to dampen incoming wave energy and retard storm surge in order to reduce flooding ashore and increase coastal resilience in the face of climate change.
