Changes and processes along the Kuala Terengganu coastline during the Northeast Monsoon and other times of the year

A knowledge of coastal processes is necessary for complete understanding of the depositional or erosional framework of any coastline. The main aim of this study is to identify the processes that operate along the Northeast Monsoon influenced coastline of Kuala Terengganu. Beach profiles have been...
