  • The Singapore Urban Systems Studies Booklet Seriesdraws On
    Biodiversity: Nature Conservation in the Greening of Singapore - In a small city-state where land is considered a scarce resource, the tension between urban development and biodiversity conservation, which often involves protecting areas of forest from being cleared for development, has always been present. In the years immediately after independence, the Singapore government was more focused on bread-and-butter issues. Biodiversity conservation was generally not high on its list of priorities. More recently, however, the issue of biodiversity conservation has become more prominent in Singapore, both for the government and its citizens. This has predominantly been influenced by regional and international events and trends which have increasingly emphasised the need for countries to show that they are being responsible global citizens in the area of environmental protection. This study documents the evolution of Singapore’s biodiversity conservation efforts and the on-going paradigm shifts in biodiversity conservation as Singapore moves from a Garden City to a City in a Garden. The Singapore Urban Systems Studies Booklet Series draws on original Urban Systems Studies research by the Centre for Liveable Cities, Singapore (CLC) into Singapore’s development over the last half-century. The series is organised around domains such as water, transport, housing, planning, industry and the environment. Developed in close collaboration with relevant government agencies and drawing on exclusive interviews with pioneer leaders, these practitioner-centric booklets present a succinct overview and key principles of Singapore’s development model. Important events, policies, institutions, and laws are also summarised in concise annexes. The booklets are used as course material in CLC’s Leaders in Urban Governance Programme.

  • Current Status of Mangrove Forests in Singapore
    Proceedings of Nature Society, Singapore’s Conference on ‘Nature Conservation for a Sustainable Singapore’ – 16th October 2011. Pg. 99–120. THE CURRENT STATUS OF MANGROVE FORESTS IN SINGAPORE YANG Shufen1, Rachel L. F. LIM1, SHEUE Chiou-Rong2 & Jean W. H. YONG3,4* 1National Biodiversity Centre, National Parks Board, 1 Cluny Road, Singapore 259569. 2Department of Life Sciences, National Chung Hsing University, 250, Kuo Kuang Rd., Taichung 402, Taiwan. 3Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA. 4Singapore University of Technology and Design, 20 Dover Drive, Singapore 138682. (*E-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT Even in a small and urbanised country like Singapore, we are still able to find new plant records in our remaining 735 ha of mangrove forests. With only one notable extinction (Brownlowia argentata Kurz), a total of 35 ‘true’ mangrove species can still be found in Singapore. This is half of the world’s total ‘true’ mangrove species recognised by IUCN. The botanical results indicate that Singapore still harbours rich mangrove diversity. The IUCN 'Critically Endangered' mangrove, Bruguiera hainesii C. G. Rogers, was discovered in 2003 as a new record. Thought to be extinct, B. sexangula (Lour.) Poir. trees were re-discovered in 2002 and occur mainly in the back mangrove. In 1999, an uncertain taxon of Ceriops was discovered, and identified as the so-called C. decandra (Griff.) Ding Hou. We later confirmed that the uncertain Ceriops species should be C. zippeliana Blume. Through international collaborative research efforts, the elucidation of the taxonomic identity of Kandelia obovata Sheue, Liu & Yong (the main mangrove of China, Japan, Taiwan and Vietnam) in 2003 was assisted by our local research efforts towards protecting our own Kandelia candel (L.) Druce.

  • An Analysis of the Physical Coastal System Along East Coast Park, Singapore
    An Analysis of the Physical Coastal System along East Coast Park, Singapore Daniel Martens 1203082-000 © Deltares, 2013, B Title An Analysis of the Physical Coastal System along East Coast Park, Singapore Client Project Pages EcoShape 1203082-000 136 Keywords Singapore, East Coast Park, coastal erosion, structurally controlled coast, headland control, conceptual model, temporal and spatial morphological scales, cross- and longshore sediment transport, waves, tide, monsoons, eustatic sea level rise, land subsidence Abstract The Republic of Singapore, or commonly referred to as Singapore, is the smallest nation in Southeast Asia and it is well protected from the open oceans by the surrounding land masses. Its total surface area has increased by more than 20% since the 1960s due to intensive land reclamations, for which the main reason was to create more accommodation space for the increasing population. Along the southeast coast of Singapore, some 1.85 km2 was reclaimed for recreational purposes, resulting in a 15 km long coastal park called East Coast Park. East Coast Park is built on entirely reclaimed land and comprises a sandy shoreline. The beaches along this shoreline are formed due to the implementation of anthropogenic structures all along this stretch of coast through so-called headland control. These structures were meant to stabilise the newly reclaimed land, which was placed on top of an unconsolidated thick layer of marine clay. In time, however, several phenomena have occurred along this new stretch of coast, indicating coastline retreat due to erosion and in some cases also flooding of the coastal area. Researchers of the EcoShape Consortium have therefore decided to investigate the possibility of applying the so-called Building with Nature principles in solutions to coastline retreat along East Coast Park, resulting in the East Coast Park design pilot.
