The Japanese Society of Coastal Forest (JSCF) is a scholarly organization dedicated to advancing research on coastal forests and supporting the conservation of their surrounding environments. Its work also aims to improve living environments, reflecting the important role coastal forests play in both natural landscapes and communities. The society shares research and guidance through its journal, which publishes scholarly work and provides information for prospective authors, including submission rules, manuscript templates, review policies, and publication fees.

JSCF also organizes annual meetings that bring members and participants together for research presentations, symposia, general assemblies, and opportunities to exchange information. Field study sessions complement these events, allowing participants to examine coastal forest sites and related environmental issues firsthand. The society publishes event announcements, programs, and updates on its website, and has offered a special distribution of the book People Who Created Coastal Forests: The Birth of White Sand and Green Pines.

Through research, publications, and professional gatherings, JSCF promotes knowledge and discussion concerning coastal forests and their conservation
