Land Reclamation

Land Reclamation – What is it? Land reclamation creates new land in large bodies of water (oceans, rivers or lakes). This is done by filling a section of the water body with rock or cement, then adding clay or dirt on the top to match the heights of the new and old land areas. One of the most well known land reclamation projects are the Palm Islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
