		The Wadden Sea as a whole is threatened by five activities (threats which cannot be isolated into separate sections of the region): threats due to construct of dykes, threats due to port and industrial construction, threats from pollution, threats from mass tourism and recreational overuse, and threats due to drainage and over-grazing of saltmarshes.
		Geographical Location The German section of the Wadden Sea coast is administratively divided between the länders of Schleswig Holstein (extending from the Danish border in the north to the estuary of the river Elbe) and Niedersächsen (extending westwards from the river Elbe to the Dutch border).
		Local Human Population Man has used the fertile borderlands along the edge of the Wadden Sea for thousands of years and has constructed mounds (Halligen) on which houses were built.

		The newest national parks in Germany are the Eifel in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia and Kellerwald-Edersee in Hesse.
		Nature reserves and national parks are not to be confused with nature parks, which are geared more towards recreation and tourism, with ecological protection usually being based on nature and landscape conservation areas within the parks.
		Of these, more than 250 areas are protected as national parks in 20 countries in Europe.

	Royal Scandinavian Mint, Inc. -- Product Detail
		The Wadden Sea extends along the coastline of Denmark, Schleswig-Holstein, Lower Saxony and the Netherlands, and is a unique marine coastal landscape where natural forces and human settlement have combined to form an unparalleled combination of sandbanks, dunes, salt-marshes and islands and one of the largest areas of tidal mudflats in the world.
		The Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea also has Germany’s only breeding population of the Grey Seal, and its young are born on the sandbanks in winter.
		Since 1986, the tidal flats, salt marshes and beaches along the Lower Saxonian coast and most parts of the East Frisian Islands are protected as a National Park to preserve the ecological process.

	Wadden Sea Project
		The Wadden Sea illustrates the importance of integrating marine protected areas into the management of entire coastal and adjacent offshore regions: with regard to the landwards catchment there is an obvious need to promote improved environmental management within the wider drainage basins that discharge into the Wadden Sea and within the Wadden Sea itself.
		The recently adopted Wadden Sea Plan (1997) entails political agreements with regard to common policy and management of the Wadden Sea.
		The Wadden Sea, Europe's largest coastal wetland, is the shallowest part of the WWF Global 200 Ecoregion North-East Atlantic Shelf.

		We recommend national park visitors on day trips to take a walk along the main dyke, from which you can see the foreshore with its bird colonies but also the island´s interior.

	Urgent action needed against oil spills in the Wadden Sea, says WWF WWF Suomi
		In addition, WWF believes that a PSSA limited to the National Parks and protected areas of the Wadden Sea without the above mentioned measures and a buffer zone that includes the shipping lanes is certainly not sufficient.
		The establishment of a PSSA in the Wadden Sea will bring heightened international awareness of environmental value, the introduction of additional measures to minimize potential environmental damage, and the recognition of local priorities by international interests.
		WWF believes the Wadden Sea qualifies for PSSA designation on the basis of the area's ecological vulnerability, productivity, critical spawning and breeding grounds, and economic benefit, among other things.

		The Wadden Sea extends between Den Helder in The Netherlands and Blåvands Huk in Denmark along the shallow waters of the North Sea, and is the largest stretch of mud flats in the world.
		The national parks’ basic ethos is to rule out any form of use except traditional ones as far as possible and to conserve nature, also as a basis for recreation.
		The Wadden Sea was formed after the glaciers melted at the end of the last Ice Age, when sea levels rose and then advanced as far as today’s coastlines.
