The coast of BiIn Bay, Seocheon, is the potential site for the field-trip learning program. This article is written in the viewpoint of geographical and environmental education. In this study, it is tried to describe geomorphological landscapes of BiIn Bay Seocheon-gun relating with it's physiognomy, based on the Dasa-ri and Songrim-ri coastal sanddunes and the like. Although landforms like tidal flats and rock cliff constitute prominent landscape features in this area, other features such as beaches, coastal dunes, and coastal plains have various ramifications for human communities. Tidal flats, beaches and coastal dunes are formed by the combined actions of longshore current, tidal flows, waves and winds. To some extent, the erosion of sandy coast has been a global phenomenon. Anthropogenic impacts are involved in the transformation of landform. Most favorable field-trip course of BiIn Bay is from Songrim-ri through Dasa-ri and Shinhap-ri to Maryang-ri. This program about coastal landforms in BiIn Bay will contribute not only for educational meanings but also for satisfying the student' curiosity and interest. Also, this field-trip learning program will be suitable for over 4th grade elementary school students and middle school students.

The Scarites aterrimus (Coleoptera: Carabidae), is one of the carabid beetles dwelling exclusively on coastal sandy dunes. Habitat deterioration and equivalent activity have greatly concerned population declines in several species dwelling on the coastal sandy dunes. As a first step to establish long-term conservation strategy, we investigated the nation-wide magnitude and nature of genetic diversity of the species. As a first step, we sequenced a portion of mitochondrial COI gene, corresponding to "DNA Barcode" region (658 bp) from a total of 24 S. aterrimus individuals collected over nine sandy dunes belonging to four Korean provinces. The sequence analysis evidenced moderate to low magnitude of sequence diversity compared with other insect species distributed in Korean peninsula (0.152% to 0.912%). The presence of closely related haplotypes and relatively high gene flow estimate collectively suggest that there had been no historical barriers that bolster genetic subdivision. Population decline was postulated on the basis of several missing haplotypes that are well found in the species with a large population size. This interpretation is consistent with field observation of small population size in the coastal sandy dune habitats. The highest genetic diversity estimates were found in the coastal sand dune population of Seogwipo, Jeju Island, justifying a prior attention to the population, in order to sustain overall genetic diversity of the species. Further scrutinized study might be required for further robust conclusion.

Planting pine trees on the coastal dunes has been carried out along the East coast as well as West coast of South Korea. Although the artificial forestation has been regarded as a good policy that help to protect the coastal area from natural disasters, but its real effect to the landscapes is still unknown. In this study, we have installed a monitoring site with an automated weather station to study requirements for dune formation and its environmental changes in Osan beach, Yangyang-Gun, Gangwon Province. We analyzed the meteorological data collected from 2010 to 2019 and vegetational changes in the study area. As a result, the wind speed is decreased by around 30% and the pine-covered area is increased by around 300m² after planting Japanese Black Pine in 2015. At present, it seems that the eolian transport of sand particle is minimal, because the dominant winds are the westerly winds which is not landward but seaward, and because the surface roughness length is about 0.5m which is similar to that in the deciduous forest.

Samples from two boreholes of coastal dune field at Jangho-ri coast, Gochang was studied. These were analyzed by grain size analysis geochemical analysis, and the application of OSL dating method to understand the development during the Holocene. The boreholes SB8 and SB9 were classified into three different sedimentary layers by their mean grain size and geochemical characteristics. The results revealed that the upper sand layer is equivalent to the present coastal dune layer, which developed since 1,200 years ago; the silt layer in the middle to the dune slack or lagoon sedimentation layer, which developed between 1,200 and 6,000 years ago; and the sand layer at the bottom to the paleo coastal dune that developed between 6,000 and 7,000 years ago. It was proposed that the forming material of current coastal dune was supplied from the sandy flat in coastal area, while the middle silt layer was supplied from the weathered soil of a bed rock by the comparison with material of surrounding area. In the case of coastal dune, concentrated layer of sands were identified which were buried about 300 and 1,200 years ago, which is identified as the little ice age. This study confirmed the development of Jangho-ri coastal dunes after Holocene Climate Optimum period, and it is likely to assist in the understanding of coastal dunes development.

Coastal dunes have many environmental and ecological socio-economic importances; various human activities, however, have impaired their structures and functions over the years. In 2016, environmental survey on coastal sand dune was carried out to report the present status and update the coastal sand dune list in 2001. This research analyzed the survey data in terms of geomorphological and socio-economic aspects. A list of the 189 coastal sand dune and information was updated by province. A 36.5% reduction in coastal sand dune area have been identified for using agricultural land, development area since the approximately 1940-50s. Development area in coastal sand dune covered small area as 5%, the use intensity was relatively hard. Furthermore, the difference by province also showed. Approximately 80% of the development area was concentrated in 20% of total sand dune several sand dune. It is generally accepted that coastal sand dunes were exposed high development pressure. However the result means that the general brief dose not apply for all sand dune. Therefore, characteristics of each sand dune should be analyzed and concerned the diverse management plans.

본 연구는 우리나라의 서해안에서 해안사구의 발달이 탁월한 충청남도 태안군의 학암포, 천리포, 만리포, 몽대포, 몽산포, 삼봉, 서천군의 송림리를 선정하여 해빈과 해안사구를 구성하는 물질의 특성과 공급원, 고사구와의 관계를 밝히는 것을 목적으로 한다. 충청남도 해안은 태안반도와 안면도를 비롯하여 육지가 바다로 돌출한 지역을 중심으로 해안선의 출입이 심한 것이 특징이다. 특히 헤드랜드에 의해 분리된 만입으로는 파랑의 작용이 비교적 활발하게 미치므로 해빈이 발달한다. 해빈의 모래는 서풍 계열의 바람에 불려 해안사구를 이루고 있다. 본 연구 지역에서는 연중 남서풍 계열의 바람이 지속적으로 불어온다. 본 연구 지역에 분포하는 해빈과 해안사구는 거의 대부분 석영과 장석으로 이루어졌으며 운모, 중광물도 포함한다. 학암포 해수욕장의 경우 석영 72.6%, 장석 20.3%, 운모 3.3%이고 이 밖에 각섬석, 녹렴석, 전기석, 지르콘, 기타 철산화물이 소량 포함되었다. 충청남도 해안은 모래가 부족한 편이며 화강암 기원의 것을 제외하면 입도가 아주 작고 원마도가 불량한 것이 특징이다. 이는 모래의 이동 거리가 길지 않았음을 의미한다. 모래부족은 해빈의 침식과 해안선의 후퇴로 나타난다. 본 연구 지역의 해안사구는 플라이스토세의 고사구충을 기반으로 발달하였다.

충남 보령시 소황리 해안을 대상으로 지난 2년간 전사구의 지형변화과정을 분석하였다. 이를 위해, 연구지역에서 식생 및 바람 자료를 획득하고 7개의 횡단면과 1개의 고정조사구($20m{\times}50m$)에서 지형변화를 정기적으로 조사하였다. 사구의 성장은 주로 늦겨울에서 봄 사이에 활발하였으며, 북서풍이 강한 시기와 일치하였다. 특히, 3월부터 4월까지 전사구 전면부에 퇴적이 증가하였으며, 해안선에서 25m까지 최대 30cm 두께로 모래가 쌓였다. 강풍의 증가와 식생의 생장이 모래의 이동과 퇴적을 견인한 것으로 분석되었다. 한편, 태풍이나 사리에 의해 해수면이 일시적으로 상승할 때, 사구지대의 하부가 침식되었다. 사빈-사구 경계부가 바닷물에 의해 직접적인 영향을 받지만, 일부 구간에서는 사구 전면부 전체가 영향을 받아서 사구단애가 형성되기도 하였다. 하지만 시간이 지남에 따라 침식단면은 원래의 모습을 회복하였다.

Coastal sand dunes have been regarded as natural defenses to protect hinterland from disasters such as storm surge and typhoons. However, many dunes are not well-deserved in South Korea because of imprudent land development or inappropriate measures after coastal erosion. Lately, beach nourishment and dune reinforcement are emphasized as the effective and environmentally sustainable solution for the coastal protection. They are regarded good strategies to keep landscapes for a time, with little side effects. However, there is little knowledge on the construction methods including proper design and time plans for the best results.In addition, the effects of dune reinforcement in the field should be tested.In thisstudy, we performed sand filling in an eroded dune scarp and surveyed topographic changes in the beach-dune system, which is located along Dasa-ri coast, Chungnam Province, South Korea. Using a network RTK-GPS and drone-based aerial photographs, we analyzed the temporal and spatial changes in the area, before and after the reinforcement. As a result, the dune reinforcement seems to be helpful to mitigates the coastal erosion and to prevent the coastline retreat at least for one year.
