Abstract

There were six excellent examples of eel grass Zostera marina bed restoration projects that have been continuing periodical monitoring and publishing of the results on several scientific papers up to date, along the coast of Seto Inland Sea, Japan. Every example included the both important action at their actual project site, e.g., 1) understanding local limiting factors of eel grass Z. marina, and 2) mitigating condition of the limiting factors. Principal actions in these projects were as follows, 1) raising sandy bottom as artificial tidal flat restoration, 2) raising sandy bottom at deepest limit of vertical distributional range for giving the suitable growing ground to eel grass Z. marina, 3) improvement on natural sandy substrata for enhancing the roots and surviving the plants, and 4) transplantation for accelerate flourishing of eel grass Z. marina.
