levee erosion protection

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyDLmIs-_nU Levees and other earthen embankments must withstand erosion, overtopping, extreme weather and changing soil moisture. ERDC researchers are investigating whether biostabilization, a nature-based treatment using biopolymers and vegetation, can help these systems remain stronger for longer. Dr. Lucas Walshire, a research civil engineer with ERDC’s Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory, explains how biopolymers can provide…
