New ports are mostly constructed on low lying coastal areas or shallow coastal waters. The quay wall and terminal yard are raised to a level well above mean sea level to assure flood safety. The resulting ‘conventional terminal’ requires large volumes of fill material often dredged from the sea, which is costly. The terminal yard of a ‘polder terminal’ lies below the outside water level and is ...

Coastal reclamation has been carried out along the coastal areas near Shenzhen, China in a large scale since 1980s by dumping fill materials over the marine mud at the sea bottom. Usually the area to be reclaimed is drained first and some of the mud is airdried for a few weeks before it is buried by fill. After reclamation, the terrestrial groundwater, which is relatively acidic and with high d...

Wetland reclamation has occurred under diverse geographic and socio-political conditions. A single event however, forms only one step in the evolution of what we refer to as landscapes. This paper assesses how interacting physical geographical, cultural biological processes shape landscape diachronically. Using a triangular model, compare two wetland landscapes: Pontine marshes central Italy, r...

The article examines the detailed spatial and temporal distributions of coastal reclamation in the northwest coast of Bohai Bay experiencing rapid coastal reclamation in China from 1974 to 2010 in annual intervals. Moreover, soil elements properties and spatial distribution in reclaimed area and inform the future coastal ecosystems management was also analyzed. The results shows that 910.7 km2 ...
