Abstract

<p>ABSTRACT: In the recent years various problems occur in natural environments of coastal zones, including loss of tidal flats, water quality deterioration, decline of inshore fishery catches, and so forth. The objectives of this study is to build natural environments database around the Kitakyushu Airport island in Geographical Information System(GIS) and evaluate natural environments of the study area. The constructed database together with the GIS gives us a great tool to store, process and analyze data on the same platform, and to display analyzed results visually. According to the evaluation results, although the construction of the airport island and other landfill has worsened physical environments, the trend of degradation in chemical environment has not been observed.</p>
