Abstract
To estimate and find the sedimentary sources near and in the fishery port of Hashidate of whichbreakwater arrangement is very complex, the ratio of the geochemcal elements to construct the sand isobtained by the X-ray fluorescent spectrcscopy (abbreviated by XRF). The method of ratio matchinggives the correlation number which is different from the statistical meaning and shows the similaritybetween two sand samplesin geochemical distribution. In a result, the sedimentary sand in the port isfound to besimilar to the sand on Hashidate swiming beach. So the sedimentarysource of the port isconsidered to be sand from Hashidate swiming beach. The comparisons of shoreline changesat Hashidateswimming beach and contour lines near the port show that the result is very reasonable. This proves thatthe method of ratio matching using geochemical elements in the sand is very reliable for finding thesedimentary source.
