Abstract

Field observations of grain size distribution of the foreshore and backshore material were carried out in Oiso area on the Seisho coast on July 30 and September 4, 2009 immediately after the storm waves due to Typhoon 0911 to investigate the sorted deposition of gravel and sand. The foreshore and backshore material was sampled along with the grain size analysis. After the storm waves with the significant wave height of 2.1 m medium and coarse sand was found to be re-deposited on the backshore over the berm composed of gravel.
