| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Enclosed bays are one of the most productive areas of seas, and they have long pro-vided humans with uncountable benefits. Because enclosed bays are the boundary between land and open sea, they are also significant for material cycles. However, eutrophication has been occurring in many enclosed bays around the world. In order to maintain sustainable utilization of the ecosystems of bays such as these, advanced inter-disciplinary research is needed. This research describes the mechanisms of fine-sediment transport variation under typical currents and introduces an ecosystem model as a tool for the integrated management of enclosed bays.
