| Research Abstract |
In the 21st century, as number of population in the coastal zone of rural area will decrease in Japan, the affected population due to storm surges with a rising in sea level will become same or small even coastal flood area will expand. After the 2011 Tohoku Pacific Ocean Earthquake, the strategy of coastal defence is being modified. This study showed the wise adaptation due to storm surges with a rise in sea level must be covered by disaster reduction countermeasures against a huge tsunami.
