Today we're looking at shallow water banks. I'm going to be looking at an area that was restored because of vessel groundings. We're doing this trying to start the recovery rates of these groundings and the below new techniques to restore these groundings faster. When a vessel grounds, it creates an excavation, essentially, and it destroys the secret and the community of the ecosystem. This community takes about between eight to twenty years to recover without an intervention. We want to do restorations, you know, all these groundings collide with each other and eventually they break apart, you know, the ecosystem and we lose all the services that the ecosystem provides. What is important for many reasons, first of all because the service is lost and what I mean by service means the service that the serious community gives to the environment, such as primary production, or the service as an nursery for animals to live in. And we bring back the services to the environment so, you know, this more space for animals to grow, you know, this is an nursery for animals. So essentially, returning back to the ecosystem was lost due to human impact. In Florida, for example, our rate of voting activities and licenses, voting licenses is increasingly drastically and with that comes the impact on the resources. We are trying to develop a technique to restore this site faster. I'm trying to return the agricultural services to the ecosystem. But I mean, restore what we did was restore the topography of the injury. We fill it up with calcium carbonate sediments, crutch calcium, calcium, very small particles. We fill it all up almost to grade and then we cap them with sediment too, it's almost like a sock. Big sock about one meter long by twenty centimeters wide. And then we cap that injury and planted and we introduce fertilizer via birstakes. That's what we did today. We went to look at them, you know, and these ground things took about a year and a half to get restored. And without the restoration portion was taken twenty years or most likely it will never be restored because it kind of fragments the ecosystem. So you have a bank that's been hidden several times by vessel. Eventually those ground things collide to each other and embrace the bank apart. This bank, you know, they form thousands of years, about ten thousand years or more. They used to be small, bottomed heart community and they started getting bigger and bigger, grabbing sand particles, creating these little tiny islands and eventually they'll become mangrove. Well I guess I will tell them to make sure that they know the area they're going to, you know, to be familiar with the waters, you know, familiar with the boaters using, make sure they read their charts and all the signs they are on the boat ramps. Make sure they know how to read the water, you know, the water is shallow, you know, stay away from it. If you use the water's brown, you know, it's getting shallow and just to be cautious that the ecosystems are very precious environment. If we keep destroying them, they'll disappear.
