The microbial component manipulates a microbiome of an environment adjacent or in contact to the mat. The microbial component can comprise at least one of live bacteria, bacteria endospores, fungi, viruses, protozoa, algae, slime moulds, archaca, micro-plants, a synthetic biology system or microbial precursor that stimulate growth of the desired microorganisms.
