北部九州の人工海岸地区における空気中海塩粒子の分布に関する計測調査

抄録

Coastal zones represent the “ third sector of the earth ” which is neither land nor sea, but a peculiar mix of the two. There is no accurate technical description for this sector.
Studies of salt damage, as an environmental problem of coastal zones, have been conducted for a considerable time. As previously reported, a field measurement of seawater and meteorological information, coastal forms, and the distribution of aerial sea-salt particles near the coast of the Kitakyushu area (within 100 m of the coastline) and the area within a distance of 7, 500 m from the coastline in the northern Kyushu natural coastal zone were conducted to obtain fundamental data for comprehensive, wide-area planning of the development of the coastal zone from an environmental point of view. A field measurement was also conducted of the area within a distance of 6, 500 m from the coastline in the northern Kyushu artificial coastal zone.
This paper presents an outline of the field measurement methods employed in surveying distributionof aerial sea-salt particles, and explains the results of measurement and analysis.
