| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For planning effective conservation measures for coastal plants on a regional scale, knowledge on the major factors influencing species richness is essential. In the sandy coastal sites in and around the San'in Kaigan National Park, I recorded all plant species established on each of the 46 sandy coastal sites within the study area. Generalized linear model analysis was used to examine the effects of environmental variables on the species richness and the presence/absence of individual native coastal plants in the sandy coastal sites. The results suggested that larger sandy coasts with more developed sand dunes have greater species richness of coastal plants, and that the preservation of such sandy coastal sites is primarily important for promoting the conservation of coastal plants on a regional scale. The reduction and leveling of sandy coasts significantly decreased the species richness of coastal plants dependent on the coastal environment for their survival and establishment.
