Abstract

Suzakihama beach faced to the Ishinomaki Bay is landtied sandspit complex, which connects Miyato Island and Nobiru coast. From the comparison of the old several nautical charts published by the Hydrographic Department of Japan, this paper clarifies the characteristics of geomorphological development of sand beaches.<br>Suzakihama beach consists of three sand spits which extend from different head points. A sand spit had been extended 2, 800m from Mt. Huro San to Miyato Island for 40 years, between 1901 and 1938. The author infers the rapid geomorphological development of the beach is derived from artificial change of Kitakami river course.
