The Research of the Change of the Coast Forest and Landscape in Sinwu Township North Coast. / 新屋鄉北岸海岸林帶地景變化之研究

碩士 / 中原大學 / 建築研究所 / 99 / Development and leisure activities in coastal areas will inevitably change the natural environment and ecological system. They will particularly and directly influence coast forest in coastal areas. Although there are many natural environmental influences, most are long-term and slow changes; whereas, man-made interference is the main factor of change of coast forests. Therefore, how to effectively and properly combine man-made environments with coastal environments without affecting coast forest is an issue worthy of further study.
This study aims to supplement past research, which focused only on the construction of coastal wind break forests, and further probe into the development and uses of coast forests. Using the northern coastal area in Sinwu Township, Taoyuan County as an example, and through analysis of the five phases of coast forests, this study investigated coast forest landscape changes of structures and quantity, in terms of time and space. It further constructed seven sample areas with coast forests as the focus in order to collect five years of statistics of a 500m×500m land use, and then compared the data with landscape changes of different sample areas. Statistical and correlation analysis were conducted by SPSS in order to discover the interactions and implications between coast forest and environmental factors.
The findings indicated that, regarding human developments, roads particularly and directly lead to great impact on structures of coast forests. The less the interference with coast forests, the more complicated the coast forest types will be and the closer it is with residences, thus providing significant protection. Regarding statistics of measured squares of land use, the ratio between coast forest in coastal areas and development areas should be below 6% in order to lessen the influential coast forest space. The coast of Taoyuan, Hsinchu, and Miaoli are sand coastal areas with shoreline changes, which rely heavily on coast forest to shelter inland. Therefore, any planning should avoid installation of man-made objects to the west of coast forests in order not to increase the load of coastal areas, leading to wasted space; a point that should be valued by related governmental departments.
