Eco-moorings at England's Studland Bay reduced seagrass scars by 94% between 2021 and 2025, according to University of Southampton research. The trial replaced traditional chain moorings that scour the seabed with helical screws and elasticated risers. The recovery has boosted marine life, including protected seahorses, in one of the UK's largest seagrass meadows.
