ABSTRACT
This study has two main purposes. First, Taean peninsula coastal area was searched to find out the changing realities and patterns of coastal landforms due to the climate change and sea level rise. As a result, of coastal areas, coastal erosion patterns show distinctively, and the type is distinguished by ① Erosion of sandy beach (coast) and sand dune, ② Backward seacliff and slope collapse, ③ Shore protection collapse. It is shown that time series observation and experiment should be added, but it seems that there is no disagreement about the progress of coastal erosion and possibility of acceleration according to previous research summary view and this study. Second, These changes in coastal terrain is concerned that it can cause huge amount of socio-economic losses and, therefore, accurate prediction and preparation for future changes are needed. With these concerns, numerous studies have attempted to find and explore the vulnerability of coastal areas, and this subject becomes big issue among changes in the coastal environment. However, studies about this subject is yet further support level, and domestic application, the needs of new model development are necessary to be examined. Therefore, in this study, four kinds of overseas case studies has been analyzed to evaluate and predict coastal environmental vulnerability, and looked at the possibility of domestic application and necessity of new model development.
