Abstract:
Highlights•The effects of land reclamation were evaluated with hydrodynamic and transport indicators.•A case study and idealized bays were modeled numerically.•The responses to reclamation in different areas of bays vary substantially.•Narrowing the bay mouth alters the vertical structure of the bay.•An increase in water exchange ability can pose new ecological challenges.
