“…In fact, expanded tidal zones, including enlarged reed vegetation, were observed along the coastline at the river mouth in the ND site after the practice of habitat restoration was initiated (i.e., installing the jetty as the ND method) (Figure S1c, f). Furthermore, it has previously been documented that sand reefs developed at river mouths at the eastern and southern coasts in the early 1900s, 1930s, and 1970s, and the reefs (especially those at the ND site) were often heavily vegetated by reeds (Fukui Prefecture, 1938;Tanaka, 1922;Ueki, 2017). Previous reports on the ND site such as that by Tanaka (1922) stated that the sand reef formations were a result of sediment alluviation, and Ueki (2017) mentioned that the tidal zones on the reefs were finally vegetated by reeds.…”

“…The macrozoobenthic community was mostly found in coastal shallows (depth ≤ 1 m) and dominated by a few brackish molluscan species, including the Shijimi clam (Miyadi, 1932). The tidal zones of the lagoon were used by shorebirds as foraging grounds (Ueki, 2017). The common reed Phragmites australis sparsely vegetated the upper tidal zone.…”

“…In the late 1600s, an area of 0.73 km 2 of the coastal shallows (i.e., approximately 30% of the previous lagoon area) was reclaimed for paddy fields (Komatsubara et al, 1999), resulting in a substantial loss of the clam habitat and fishing ground (Kamo Family Document, 1729). In the coastal revetment installation in the 1970s, approximately 60% of the coastline has deepened (Nomura & Kawano, 2011), resulting in a further loss of coastal shallows (Ueki, 2017). After the coastal habitat loss, catch yields of the clams and the number of foraging shorebirds have declined drastically (Mikata-goko Nature Restoration Committee, 2013;Ueki, 2017).…”

Considering the local histories, the recent declines in clam catch and foraging shorebirds are believed to be largely due to habitat loss.…”

The coastal shallows in the Kugushi-ko lagoon (western Japan), were restored to mitigate the historical coastal squeeze using two different methods: sand nourishment (SN), which is commonly used worldwide, and natural deposition (ND) method, which facilitates the deposition of river-derived sediments using local knowledge (LK) on habitat characteristics of the historically commercial Shijimi clam (Corbicula japonica). In this study, macrozoobenthic assemblage structures were examined to clarify how the different restoration methods affected them. A total of 24 taxa occurred with a predominance of molluscan species in 18 samples (two SN sites and one ND site, six sampling plots each). In the ND site, the macrozoobenthic community was dominated by reed-associated snails and Shijimi clams, linking to a higher whole-benthos density than SN sites. Cluster analysis identified two groups of sampling plots that had different macrozoobenthic communities, and four shallow-water inhabiting species were detected as indicator species for one cluster involving all sampling plots at the ND site. Distance-based redundancy analysis (dbRDA) demonstrated that water depth and reed vegetation explained the variations in assemblages. Furthermore, within the cluster, a subcluster consisting of all plots in the ND site was identified. dbRDA showed that the dominant species in the ND subcluster were associated with reed vegetation and finer grain size.The present results suggest that the ND method likely restored the reedvegetated shallow habitats characterizing the macrozoobenthic community structure, and that LK-based habitat restoration practices may offer new options for restoration programs in estuarine and coastal seas.

I am grateful to many people for making this work possible. First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor Prof. Daniel Feezell for his dedicated guidance and support. Early on in my degree, I remember him mentioning that VCSEL projects are always of high risk and high reward. For the longest time, I doubted myself on whether I would be able to fulfill all the project requirements. But, Prof. Feezell believed in my ability and urged me to push forward which ultimately lead to groundbreaking results from my VCSEL project. Not only did I learn a ton from his vast knowledge on IIInitride materials and devices, his constructive criticisms greatly improved the quality of my work and allowed me to grow as a researcher. Next, I am thankful to my committee members and collaborators, Prof. Ganesh Balakrishnan, Prof. Sang Han, and Dr. Ting Luk for their time and suggestions. Their valuable insight on optical, electrical, and mechanical properties of semiconductors helped me tremendously in understanding the material characteristics and device performance of my VCSELs. I cannot express the immense gratitude I feel for my fellow group members, both past and present. All of whom have helped me towards the completion of my PhD in some way or another. Many thanks to Ashwin, Morteza, Mohsen, and Mike for introducing me to MOCVD and for taking care of my growths when I was busy doing something else. Discussions regarding fabrication with Andrew, Mahmoud, Rhett, Kenny, Farnood, and Abdel have always helped me in developing processes very v quickly and reliably. I am also grateful to Serdal, Arman, and Isaac for assisting me in various material and device related characterizations. Many of the accomplishments mentioned in this thesis could not have been possible without the support of the technical and/or administrative staff. As such, I am forever indebted to the ECE, CHTM, and CINT staff members for putting up with my numerous requests and questions throughout the years. Beyond the appreciation of the technical side of things, I would like to thank all my friends from back home and the ones I made during the course of my study. They were always there to lend a helping hand or to simply distract me from work whenever graduate student life became too overwhelming. Furthermore, I must also acknowledge the Bangladeshi community here at UNM for making Albuquerque feel like home, even though my real home is halfway around the world. Looking back, I will forever cherish these memories. Last, but certainly not least, I would like to thank my parents, my older sister, and my younger brother. I would not be where I am at today without their unconditional love and encouragement. They have sacrificed a lot so that I can pursue a career of my choice, even if it meant me being away from home for an extended period time. I only hope that the work I performed in this thesis is substantial enough to repay them and make them proud. vi
