Abstract
 The influences of climate change due to global warming have been estimated on wave characteristics such as wave height. The effect may occurred on not only wave height but also wave period or wave direction. Because those wave parameters of a specific coast could be changed due to the sea area and geological characteristics, it is important to the climate change effcts on wave climate in order to understand the effect on shoreline change in a long term.
 In this study, shoreline change model is developed, which has been calibrated by using local survey and aerial photos. And future wave conditions, based on future climate which has different SST for the end of this century, are estimated and the effect on shoreline change is estimated based on the wave climated change.
