Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study elucidated the characteristics of the damage and resilience of coastal agricultural settlements in terms of multigenerational response, actual resilience to heavy rainfall disasters in tree-ring areas, and relationship between disaster resilience and community attachment. The study obtained a few findings related to understanding the relationship between resilience and the foundation of peacetime existence, including changes in the structure of livelihood across generations, the actual status of land use and utilization of agricultural land, the study of methods for wildlife damage control, urban-rural exchange, and the impact of infectious diseases.
This discussion has created a resilience-oriented viability assessment axis for waterfront agricultural settlements.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

臨海農業集落は国土保全管理上重要な条件降り地域であるにもかかわらず，研究蓄積がしくなかった。このような地域の課題を正面から取り上げ，地域問題解決の援用できる研究成果を提供できたことは，大きな学術的意義，社会的意義を有するものと考えることができる。
