Based on the Japanese governmental adaptation plan against the influence of climate change, the local governments promptly have to design such measures. We focused on the vulnerability of storm surge disasters along the innermost coast, Saga Plain, of the Ariake Sea since most of the area is below sea level. We present our experiences of the attempts to design adaptation measures from various approaches. We developed bias correction methods of future climate data and wind field computed by empirical typhoon model, and conducted inundation simulations under the various adaptation measures.
