The present paper is concerned with the processes of coastal barrier breaching with focus on the breach initiation induced by high activity of tropical cyclones in the northern and central coast of Vietnam. The breach initiation by the response of coastal barriers during storm surges can also be a common practice encountered in many coasts around the world. A survey of historical breach incidents is first conducted to investigate the major cause and the associated mechanism of coastal breaching. A qualitative description of processes involved is also given. For more quantitative understanding of the breaching potential, a model study on the barrier response of a typical vulnerable spot in the central coast of Vietnam is carried out. The res...
