Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research program, we have conducted advanced studies on coastal seafloor geomorphology using high-resolution coastal map produced by cutting-edge technology of multibeam bathymetric surveys. The discovery and geomorphological study of submerged karst in Nagura Bay, Ishigaki Island is the beginning of coastal seafloor geomorphology which is rarely discussed in conventional geomorphology. Moreover, new perspectives and new field of research is developed through collaborative field research among natural, social and human science. Our research on Yarabusaki underwater archeological site using multibeam bathymetric map shows an example of the advanced achievement of our interdisciplinary research.
