A comprehensive and systematic field monitoring program was initiated since October 1989, in order to investigate the temporal and spatial variation of shoreline position at northern part of Pea Island, North Carolina. Aerial photographs were taken every two months on the shoreline extending from the US Coast Guard Station at the northern end of Pea Island to a point 6 miles to the south. Aerial photographs taken were digitized initially to obtain the shoreline position data. in which a wet-dry line visible on the beach was used to identify the position of shoreline. Since the wet-dry line does not represent the “true" shoreline .position but includes the errors due to the variations of wave run-up heights and tidal elevations at the time the photos taken, it is required to eliminate the tide and wave runup effects from the initially digitized shoreline .position data. Runup heights on the beach and tidal elevations at the time the aerial photographs taken were estimated using tide data collected at the end of the FRF pier and wave data measured from wave-rider gage installed at 4 km offshore, respectively A runup formula by Hunt (1957) was used to compute the run-up heights on the beach from the given deepwater wave conditions. With shoreline position data corrected for .wave runup and tide, both spatial and temporal variations of the shoreline positions for the monitoring shoreline were analyzed by examining local differences in shoreline movement and their time dependent variability. Six years data of one-mile-average shoreline indicated that there was an apparent seasonal variation of shoreline, that is, progradation of shoreline at summer (August) and recession at winter (February) at Pea Island. which was unclear with the uncorrected shoreline position data. Determination of shoreline position from aerial photograph, without regard to the effects of wave runup and tide, can lead to mis-interpretation for the temporal and spatial variation of shoreline changes.nges.

This study investigated the sedimentary environment changes in the Baramarae beach of Anmyeondo through spatio-temporal surface sediment analysis. In the winter season 2009, surface sediments were classified into 7 sedimentary facies such as gravel, sand, gravelly sand, gravelly muddy sand, muddy sand, silty sand, and sandy silt. Time-series analysis of average grain size from 2002 to 2009 revealed that the average grain size of sediments became finer and sorting was much worse. On the contrary, during the same period, the grain size became coarsening-trend and sorting was much better in beach area. These different grain size patterns resulted from the different change characteristics of beach and tidal flats. The southwestern beach area was connected to the open sea and thus fine sediments were removed by the environments with relatively high-energy. The sedimentation of fine sediments in the bay resulted from the tidal current action and the reduction of energy by the topographic effects. Fine sediments in the outer part of southwestern tidal flats could be explained such that the Seomot isle blocked ocean waves and as a result, low-energy environments accelerated sedimentations of fine sediments.

최근 지구 온난화에 따른 기후변화로 인한 해수면 상승과 폭풍해일의 강도 및 발생빈도가 증가하고 고파랑 내습, 난개발 등으로 인한 연안 지역의 해안선 변화 및 연안 침식이 크게 문제화되고 있다. 연안 환경의 변화를 분석하는 방법에는 광파측거기를 이용한 해빈 측량, RTK-GPS를 이용한 측정, 항공사진 분석 등이 주된 연구 방법이지만 이러한 연구 방법으로는 미세한 지형 변화의 관찰은 어려움이 많았으며 세밀하고 정량적인 지형분석이 요구 되었다. 본 연구에서는 연구대상지역인 가곡천 하구부를 대상으로 지상 LiDAR를 이용해 장기간 정밀측량을 실시하였다. 자료를 바탕으로 가곡천 하구부의 부피와 면적을 비교분석하였으며, 해안선변화의 정량적 비교분석을 실시하였다.

High swell has been known for the one of the main causes of beach erosion in the east coast of Korea. In this study, coastal topography changes due to high swells are simulated to find its effect on the backshore by using movable bed experiments and numerical experiments. Sea bottom topographical changes due to various incident waves were investigated using CSHORE model in the numerical experiments. Furthermore, the mechanism and the phenomena of beach erosion due to waves and high swells on the foreshore and backshore were analyzed and compared with movable bed hydraulic experiments.

Coastal dune, as one part of beach system, contributes for beach recovery as well as preventing beach erosion by exchanging sands between beach and dune. Due to high tidal range, the boundary of sand dunes on the west coast of Korean Peninsula is outside the high water line during spring tide and erosion also occurs in high waves during spring high tide. This paper investigates the erosion status of the dunes located in the JangHang beach by analyzing images from camera monitoring system, and tide and wave data observed adjacent to the study site during the passage of 4 typhoons in 2012. It also studies the benefits of camera monitoring images in investigating the dune erosion and analyzing coastal topographic changes.

A case study was conducted in Taean region to seek a more detailed macrotidal beach classification than existing beach classification models (Masselink and Short, 1993). Seepage and ridge & runnel were used for classification. On 20 beaches, 68 transects were surveyed 5 times using VRS-GPS. Cross-section area from the transect profiles, mean grain size from sediment analysis, significant wave height from Swan-wave modeling and beach embaymentization from aerial photograph analysis were used to identify the characteristics of the individual types. The transects were classified into 5 types in Taean region; Type 1: low tidal terrace, Type 2: low tidal terrace & ridge, Type 3: dissipative, Type 4: seasonal ridge, and Type 5: ridge & runnel. Generally, seepage was related to coarse sediment size and ridge & runnel was related to high significant wave height. Each type has different characteristics and there was a tendency between the types. The low tidal terrace type had coarse sediments, because this type is excluded from the littoral cell. In this study, the ridge and runnel type could be applied to the classification because the study area is limited only to the macrotidal environment in Taean region.

본 연구에서는 해안침식이 진행되고 있는 해운대 해수욕장의 장기 해안지형 변화 및 인근지역의 토지피복 변화에 대해 분석하였다. 지난 60여 년간의 항공사진을 이용하여 해안선을 추출하고 이를 수심측량 및 GPS측량 자료를 이용하여 조위보정한 후, 해빈면적을 추출하여 해안지형 변화를 분석하였다. 또한 환경부 토지피복 세분류를 기준으로 하여 육안판독을 통해 13개년도의 토지피복도를 제작하고 토양유실량을 산정하여 연도별 토지피복 변화를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 해운대 해수욕장의 해안선이 점진적으로 후퇴하고 있으며 해수욕장 면적이 전체적으로 감소하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 춘천천 복개 및 도시개발에 의한 모래 공급원 차단이 이러한 해안침식에 영향을 주는 인위적 원인이라고 사료된다.

Samples were collected from both places including the coastal area within the height of 5 m above the mean sea level (msl) (DH) and the top of the coastal terrace of 10-15 m msl (KS) high in Gwangseungri, Gochanggun, Korea. To find the origin of the deposit in the coastal area, granulometric analysis and geochemical analysis were performed. The result showed that the DH samples were originated from the reddish soils overlaying weathered bedrock which presented gradual change of chemical composition from the bottom toward the top. Clay minerals were found from the DH samples. These results concluded that the DH samples were found as in-situ weathered materials. The KS samples were originated from the soil layer covering gravel layer at the foot slope of the hill along the coast. The KS samples contained different chemical compositions from the DH. It is inferred that some of this layer was disturbed or experienced the influx of foreign material. The particle size of the KS samples was different from those found on the beach. The particle size of lower parts of KS site was finer than that on the beach, but the particle size of middle part of the site was coarser than that on the beach. The sorting of the KS site was poorer than that on the beach. Thus, it is inferred that some parts of the layer were formed by short-lived high energy event rather than sustained and continuous action of tidal currents and/or waves. Analysis using an optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) method showed that the burial age of samples from KS site were found 0.65-0.71 ka. Though the characteristics of the sediment layer and forming event in this area should be further studied, it can be inferred that this sedimentary layer formed by coastal flooding with storm.

우리나라 동해안에 위치한 대부분의 중소항만 및 어항들은 사빈해안에 건설된 소규모 어항이 주를 이루고 있으며, 항 입구부가 쇄파대 내에 위치하고 있으므로 지형변화가 극심하여, 항내에 매몰현상이 발생되고 있다. 이러한 현상들로 인하여 항내수심을 유지하기 위해 거의 매년 준설을 실시 할 뿐 아니라, 항내매몰로 인해 수심이 낮아져 배가 전복되어 인명피해가 발생하는 등 극심한 피해를 입고 있어 항내 및 항로매몰이 적지않은 사회적 문제로 대두되고 있는 실정이다. (중략)

파랑ㆍ흐름의 공존장에서 그 간섭작용은 Tidal inlet 와 하구부근와 같은 천해영역에서 중요한 물리적 현상이다. 이러한 파ㆍ흐름간섭현상은 파랑의 파고, 스펙트럼과 파향등을 현저하게 변화시키고, 하구와 inlet부근에 출현하는 사주(砂洲)등의 발생기구 및 해빈 안정화에 관계하는 중요한 요인이기 때문에 이에 대한 적절한 해석이 필요하다. 본 보고에서는 확장형 부시네스크방정식을 토대로 한 수치모델을 통하여 파ㆍ흐름 공존장에서의 적용성을 검토하고자 한다. (중략)
