Following up on the report on the Undersea Garden in Labrador Shore (Singapore), the folks from Team Seagrass saw a different side of the story.
:
Comprising large plastic tubing and what looks like tough sheeting very roughly put together with cable ties.
Each structure covered an area of about 2mx2m. And there were several of them.
Later, we were given to understand that the objects were part of some sort of experiment conducted on Labrador. So we left them alone.
Labrador is our last mainland reef, and among the last patches of good seagrasses accessible to the public. It is also rather narrow. It was thus really heart-breaking to see the shore being affected by such large structures.
:
The large structures were covered with seaweed and starting to break apart.
The broken pieces move to and fro in the waves all across the rich Labrador shore.
Crushing seagrasses and corals.
:
Fragmenting but still moving back and forth, affecting marine life on the shore.
