I was kinda surprised to find this (Thanks to some researchers in the office for tipping us off to this), but there’s some conceptual animation one of my coworkers did of a Rapid Levee Repair possibility.  A somewhat far-fetched possibility, but a possibility nonetheless (Man, if you think this is far-fetched, you should’ve seen some of the other… wow).

It’s courtesy of an article in New Scientist entitled "Air Dropped Dams could fix levee breaches".  The YouTube clip is below in pretty poor quality.  Our version was significantly higher-resolution, somewhere around 720p.

It’s strange how stuff shows up in public sometimes, without rhyme or reason.
