Our study aims to compare and evaluate the coastal vulnerability index (CVI) and the weighted CVI (CVIw) along the Subang Regency coastline in northern part of Java Island-Indonesia. We use coastal parameters: coastal relief, morphology, shoreline change, tidal range, sea-level change, wave height, land subsidence, and land use. Then, vulner- ability maps are prepared to highlight areas with low, medium, high, and very high vulnerability. The vulnerability parameters map showed that shoreline change, land subsidence, and land use are influencing the vulnerability more than other parameters. The CVIw appears to be more favourable to assess the Subang Coast vulnerability, in which the very high vulnerability (43%) is dominant compared to the CVI (21%). This will require urgent protective action from the coast managers. Both CVI and CVIw have a 21% of very high risk in the same areas (Mayangan, Legon Wetan, and Pangarengan Villages), and these areas need protec- tion from the coastal land loss. Meanwhile, the authority has plans for aquaculture in the area, and we suggest that it should be planned thoroughly to ensure that the practice does not destruct the coasts any further.

decision-making processes in managing the coast. Our study aims
to compare and evaluate the coastal vulnerability index (CVI) and
the weighted CVI (CVIw) along the Subang Regency coastline in
northern part of Java Island-Indonesia. We use coastal parameters:
coastal relief, morphology, shoreline change, tidal range, sea-level
change, wave height, land subsidence, and land use. Then, vulner-
ability maps are prepared to highlight areas with low, medium,
high, and very high vulnerability. The vulnerability parameters
map showed that shoreline change, land subsidence, and land
use are influencing the vulnerability more than other parameters.
The CVIw appears to be more favourable to assess the Subang
Coast vulnerability, in which the very high vulnerability (43%) is
dominant compared to the CVI (21%). This will require urgent
protective action from the coast managers. Both CVI and CVIw
have a 21% of very high risk in the same areas (Mayangan, Legon
Wetan, and Pangarengan Villages), and these areas need protec-
tion from the coastal land loss. Meanwhile, the authority has
