“…The same ecosystem has also been attractive to developers for reclamation purposes. A recent study showed that that Mumbai lost 40% of its coastal mangroves in a piecemeal manner in the past two decades (Azeez et al, 2022;Vijay et al, 2005). Thus, experts argued that the reclamation of the Mithi River marshes in the region was the culprit behind the deluge of 2005 (Kelkar, 2005).…”

Transition ecologies, namely ecotones, are where life started. Deltas, estuaries, bayous, and wetlands are places where different ecosystems merge and evolutionary processes take place. This paper explores three time periods in four coastal cities to look at the relationship between environmental values and urban expansionist paradigms through reclamation projects. It argues that these thresholds, occurring contemporaneously in expanding metropolitan regions, correspond to changing conceptualizations of urban–nature relationships, in other words urban core's changing relationships to fringe ecosystems. The metropolitan regions used as case studies for this piece are Mumbai, Amsterdam, New York, and Tokyo. Each has used reclamation as a grand expansion strategy during political or economic transitions. During each grand alteration attempt in these regions, the developers, reclamation enthusiasts, or urban planners revisited the city's immediate ecological fringe for expansion, and following these revisitations, a new geographical order formed in their subsequent regions. The urban fringe has become the socio-spatial zone where new and experimental ideas about urban development encounter complex natural systems. The land-use negotiations and reclamation's role in shaping the urban–nature relationships are missing pieces of the planning field. Any future looking climate resiliency plan today should build on the reading of this palimpsest and understand how these environmental values were traded and how global expansion narratives transformed the urban–nature gradient.

“…On the right side of the road improvements is a beach area where the mangrove trees have been damaged, necessitating replanting because it is immediately facing the Pacific Ocean with strong currents [26]. However, in cases where the mangrove forest has entirely disappeared, technological efforts are required to plant mangroves in fast currents, and colleges must support these efforts from that; a beach barrier from coastal erosion is required, as the old road conditions were deteriorating and necessitated special attention [27].…”

Planned road expansion in Manokwari, West Papua, along 6.5 km of the Maruni - - Dr. Esau Sesa in phase I of 2024 will prioritize low-carbon development and climate resilience. Road design enhancement and economic and financial analysis are conducted in this research. In the economic analysis, the National Road Administration Agency, the Head of Public Works and Spatial Planning, and the Regional Development Planning Agency from the regency and provincial collaborated on budget tagging. The proposed design incorporates bicycle lanes, green infrastructure in tree-based pedestrian areas as an energy source for biomass pellets, solar panel-based street lights, drainage along pedestrians to anticipate extreme weather and flooding, rehabilitation of mangroves whose ecosystem function has diminished, and retaining buildings erosion for damaged mangroves. The economic analysis begins with the calculation of the Vehicle Operating Cost (VOC) for large cities using the ratios 1:7 (Light Vehicle, LV) and 1:4 (Heavy Vehicle, HV). Time savings of up to 10 minutes and total VOC contribute to the total savings. Furthermore, an analysis of NPV > 0, IRR > 15%, BEP in the fifth and sixth year, and net B/C ratio > 0 indicates that road improvement is feasible based on economic analysis.
