ABSTRACT Baek, Y.S.; Lee, S.H.; Lee, S.H.; Kim, H.-J.; Jou, H.-T., and Ryu, S.O., 2016. Textural facies and distribution of surface sediments and morphology on Korean tidal flats. In: Vila-Concejo, A.; Bruce, E.; Kennedy, D.M., and McCarroll, R.J. (eds.), Proceedings of the 14th International Coastal Symposium (Sydney, Australia). Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue, No. 75, pp. 1307 - 1311. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. The aim of this study is to understand the regional distribution patterns of surface sediment together with morphology and to infer regional transport and sedimentation along the western and southwestern coast of Korea. Based on the analysis of 1027 surface sediment samples at 74 tidal flats and the morphologic profiles at 29 tidal flats obtained from estuarine, open coast, embayment, and islands along the western and southwestern coasts of Korea, tidal flats were divided spatially into four sectors; 1) Gyeonggi (GG), 2) Chungcheong (CH), and 3) Western Jeonnam (WJ) and ...
