Abstract
In cooperation with Ho Chi Minh City University of Vietnam, beach changes on the coasts of Phan Rang City 270km east of Ho Chi Minh City were investigated. Beach changes associated with the elongation of a sand spit and sand accumulation owing to the blockage of longshore sand transport by a jetty were investigated using satellite images together with site observation. This method combined satellite image analysis and site observation is useful for investigating beach changes in developing countries, where field data necessary for the analysis are often lacking. Preventive or mitigation measures were considered in view of Integrated Coastal Zone Management in place of the local optimization.
