Abstract
Sandy beach shows gradual topographic change with long-term and short-term variations corresponding to the conditions of waves and tides. Because of the irregularity in the profile change, it is difficult to investigate the characteristics of shoreline change in detail. In this research, long-term survey of the beach profiles has been carried out on three different coasts almost every week for more than ten years. The topographic data were analyzed and the characteristics of the long-term and seasonal beach profile change were discussed using the statistical methods and the empirical orthogonal eigenfunction method (EOF).
