Yanliao Beach Nourishment Methods

Overview
Yanliao Beach, part of Taiwan's Northeast Coast National Scenic Area, is a major sightseeing and recreation spot. In recent years, the number of tourists has increased, and maintaining the beach's recreation function has become crucial. In 2007, Typhoon Krosa caused substantial beach erosion at Yanliao Beach; sand dunes collapsed, resulting in a beach scarp and endangering facilities toward the back of the beach. To protect the sand dunes and beach scarp of the post-typhoon topography, based on long-term Yanliao Beach topographic survey information and long-term tidal water level records, this study conducted an integrated artificial beach nourishment method that comprised replenishing the coastal beach and dunes. The planned areas for sand replenishment were those above the mean high water line. This beach nourishment measure protected the dunes from collapsing further and mitigated the risk of beach nourishment polluting the water in front of the beach. Topographic survey results revealed that the large amount of sand deposited in the intertidal zone resulted in the 0 m shoreline advancing toward the seaside. The width of the beach increased, indicating the success of this integrated beach nourishment method.
