Tidal flat, classified as wetland of coastal zone, is critical transitional zone connecting sea with land, and fulfills a variety of functions necessary for maintaining coastal ecosystem. Although it is critical to protect and strengthen its functions of coastal wetlands, tidal flat has been mainly viewed as areas for development in Korea. Therefore, this study provides with the effective mitigation measures so as to minimize adverse impacts of tidal flat reclamation projects on the proper environmental values. So far, coastal development has not considered as important the fact that development site consists of tidal flat in site selection. Therefore, large scale of tidal flats was abused. Problems were emerged only after tidal flat development was already planned. The original plan had to be revised. To rectify the problem, impacts of development on the environment need to be discussed based on the initial development planning. Particularly, sandy beaches, rocky shores and shallow areas, underwater forest including seagrass beds as well as the tidal flat in good condition should be excluded from development site. + Corresponding author : jhmaeng@kei.re.kr * 한국환경정책평가연구원 환경평가본부연구위원농학박사 ** 인하대학교 자연과학대학 생명해양과학부 해양과학전공 교수이학박사 서 론 1. 갯벌은 육지로부터 흘러 들어오는 무기염류 및 유기물을 제거하고 해수를 정화하여 연안환경 을 양호한 상태로 유지시키며 높은 생산성을 갖 , 는 갯벌 표면의 부착성 미세조류가 먹이사슬을 통해 여러 동물에게 이용되도록 하며 인류에게 중 , 요한 먹이공급의 장으로서 중요한 역할을 수행하 고 있다 또한 최근에 갯벌 내에 분포하는 염생 . 식 물 군락이 중요한 로 주목받고 있다 ‘carbon sink'
