Abstract
⺠Extensive land reclamation reached a high rate of 21 km2/year during 1997-2007. ⺠Geographic features of Bahrain during 1963-2007/08 were produced using GIS. ⺠Estimated cumulative loss of habitats resulting from 10 projects was 153.58 km2. ⺠The study assigns a monetary value to the marine ecosystem functions. ⺠Coastal zone management for a sustainable use of the marine resources is required.
