At the Namhangjin Coast on the eastern coast of South Korea, there are five artificial reefs constructed as a form of countermeasure to prevent beach erosion. Since the construction, severe beach erosion has not occurred, and due to the presence of the artificial reefs various sedimentation effects have taken place. However, inside the opening gaps between the artificial reefs, the occurrences of return flow and severe scouring have been observed. In this field investigation the effects of one of the six artificial reefs, installed particularly for abalone, seaweed and fish farming, have been reviewed. Furthermore, th...
