Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.The Gangwon province, which is located mid-eastern part Korean Peninsula, started Monitoring Program (CEMP) on 2006 has been currently progressing. The eastern coast province carried out all 41 littoral drift cells. In this study, we compared evaluated a level beach erosion based four years results. indicators for coastal evaluation Korea are consists width change (40 points), area (30 pts), hinterland risk vulnerability (20 population (5 pts) nature conservation value pts). levels absolute point by were separated phases through A phase (stable, well preserved with over 90 indicator B (occurred an accretion or erosion, but relatively stable 70~89 C (damage caused will be appeared, 50~69 D (occurring heavy damage continuous below 50 sectors, including 79 beaches. result shows that serious phenomenon increasing. Especially, eroded sectors extremely increased 2014 (A=0, B=18, C=47, D=14), monitoring 2010 (A=5, B=26, C=31, D=17).
