Abstract

Coastal sand dunes in West coast of Korea are under stress. Due to the newly constructed Seohaean(West Coast) Highways, the number of visitors and the anthropogenic pressures will keep rising in near future. Sea level rise due to the global warming may cause a lot of damage to the natural resources and residents of coastal area. Therefore, many countries including United States are doing nationwide coastline survey using highly sophisticated methodology. In this study, high resolution IKONOS satellite images along with aerial photographs taken since 1960's have been sequentially analyzed using GIS software (Erdas Imagine 8.3). Onsite monitoring has been performed at the 31 measuring points in 10 beaches since the May of 2001 in order to measure the sand budget. Post-construction monitoring after installation of sand fences is also being done on sites regularly. Restoration works seem to be effective at this moment.

해안사구는 지속적으로 변화하고 있다. 최근에는 지구온난화에 따른 해수면 상승 등의 이유로 재해대책의 차원에서 해수면 변화를 연구하는 것이 범세계적인 추세이다. 최근의 서해안 고속도로의 개통으로 서해안 사구 지역을 포함한 해수욕장을 찾는 사람은 계속 증가할 것으로 판단된다 하지만 해수면 상승에 따른 해안선 후퇴와 이에 따른 해안지역의 환경변화에 대한 국내의 관심은 매우 부족한 현실이다. 이 연구에서는 태안해안국립공원과 인근 지역의 사구에 대하여 1960년대부터 촬영된 항공사진과 최근의 헬기를 이용한 항공촬영 결과 및 고해상도 IKONOS 위성영상을 GIS 프로그램을 이용하여 시계열적으로 분석하여 사구 지역의 변화를 분석하였다. 특히 현지에서 1년 이상 지속적으로 31개 지점에서 모니터링한 자료를 분석하여 사구복원을 위해 설치된 모래울타리 및 보호 목책과 같은 시설물 및 식생복원의 효과를 분석하였다. 적극적인 복원대책의 효과가 긍정적으로 나타나고 있는 것으로 판단된다.
