Intertidal
Under the background of the continuous rise of sea level, the natural ecological defense system in the cramond area protects the human settlements in the highlands, but the intertidal ecosystem and animal and plant habitats on which other species depend on the site will be affected by the seawater. Submerged with great damage. Therefore, it is our indispensable responsibility to build an intertidal park that co-exists with nature.
The intertidal zone is a huge tidal flat formed by the continuous flow of soil from upstream to downstream by rivers. The Almond river has been affected by human activity since ancient times and continues to be affected by the loss of control of the city's drainage system.
The proposal proposes an intertidal park, whose materials and implementation steps are closely related to the strategy of river drainage to water pollution. Retaining the use function of the intertidal zone is not only a defensive measure against sea level rise, but also plays a certain role in protecting the continuity of the site's ecosystem, realizing symbiosis between man and nature.

Sea level rise
Summarize the flood protection system of Edinburgh's coastline and the impact of sea level rise. Due to the impact of human activities and the intervention of human factors, the impact of sea level rise will have different effects on flood control docks in different regions. For the cramond area, since the natural landscape of the site itself accounts for the majority, the rising sea water has little impact on the living environment, but the rising sea level will submerge the existing huge area of intertidal zone, which will affect the local ecology. system with indelible effects.
When new intertidal parks are constructed, both human and non-human creatures can share space. Different spaces have different usage methods. For the plank road, it is to provide a leisure space for human beings to roam in the natural environment. It's an animal paradise for those conversations that can't make infrastructure. The intertidal park just happens to form two non-overlapping spaces, reserving each other's activity space for human and non-human creatures.
