Summary:Park, C.-W.; Ahn, S.-M.; Jung, S.-J., and Lee, K.-H., 2023. Functional assessment of coastal buffer zone installation by numerical method. In: Lee, J.L.; Lee, H.; Min, B.I.; Chang, J.-I.; Cho, G.T.; Yoon, J.-S., and Lee, J. (eds.), Multidisciplinary Approaches to Coastal and Marine Management. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 116, pp. 673-677. Charlotte (North Carolina), ISSN 0749-0208. In 2020, the Korean Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries implemented 192 coastal conservation projects and 49 hydro-friendly maintenance projects as part of the Master Plan for Basic Coastal Maintenance. The effect analysis on 44 sites showed a 64 % improvement in erosion score, which is critical to mitigate the ongoing coastal erosion issue caused by climate change and increasing coastal activities. Statistics reveal an 18 % increase in highly eroded sites among 250 coastal locations compared to five years ago. To combat this issue, the Ministry aims to create environmentally friendly spaces with their 3rd Basic Plan for Coastal Maintenance, focusing on coastal buffer zones. This study assessed the functional effectiveness of eco-friendly coastal buffer zones through numerical simulations that accounted for variations in beach volume and slope.
