Abstract
Ariake Bay, a typical closed bay on the west of the Kyushu Island, is a sea area where a vast tidal flat develops. Recently, various environmental degradations are reported occur in Ariake Bay, as red tidal and anoxic water. In this study, the ecosystem formation process by recovery of shoreline, the aim in this method is to establish the technology that can artificially restore the tidal flat and the shoreline in front of embankment development and to recover and maintain the ecosystem, was investigated in Ariake Bay. We investigated the characteristics of spatial distribution of habitat from relation to topography, sediment and distribution situation of benthos. As the result, the peculiar environment such as water-route influences distribution situation of benthos.
