Yes, there is reclaimed land but what is anomlous about the Zuider Zee is that it is now composed of fresh water rather than ocean brine.

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zuider_Zee>: "In the 20th century the majority of the Zuiderzee was closed off from the North Sea (leaving the mouth of the inlet to become part of the Wadden Sea) and the salt water inlet changed into a fresh water lake"
