Artificial Wetland Park Introduction

Dapeng Bay has shed its past military usage and the era of widespread oyster farms, now moving towards the development of water-based tourism and recreational activities. To promote such activities, the quality of water must first be considered. In light of this, the Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area Administration has invested considerable effort in long-term water quality monitoring. To improve water quality while also restoring the original wetland landscape, the specific approach involves transforming abandoned fish ponds around the bay into "constructed wetlands." These wetlands require low investment in infrastructure, have low operating costs, are easy to manage and maintain, and serve multiple functions, including regulating microclimates and improving the environment, functioning as a basis for wastewater treatment. Since the wastewater treated by the Dapeng Bay constructed wetlands primarily comes from the discharge of surrounding aquaculture ponds, which use seawater from Dapeng Bay, the wetlands are not processing freshwater but rather seawater. Thus, many wetlands in Dapeng Bay are among the few brackish constructed wetlands in the country, making it a significant feature. In fact, the aquatic plants planted in the wetland environment have effectively improved the local ecological landscape, simultaneously increasing the habitat space for aquatic flora and fauna, enriching and beautifying the water landscape of Dapeng Bay, and highlighting its green ecology.
