The team at RMIT found that when you combine lattices in a structure similar to a deep-sea sponge, your material of choice can absorb more energy and handle more stress before deforming. Using the ...

A marine park in Australia is trying out a new way to help protect sea sponges. Marine biologist Dr Chris Gillies and his team from Offshore Biotechnologies are dropping 120 tonnes of rubble and ...

"The rock, with all the grooves, will attract plankton, baby sponges and baby corals, [and] the hard surface creates the reef and colonises the sea bed," Dr Gillies said. The rubble is also ...
