Satellite Images and Grains Size Analysis for Shoreline Changes: A Case Study at Southern Kelantan and Northern Terengganu, Malaysia

Pasir Puteh and Besut are two separate districts that lie between the southern border of Kelantan and northern Terengganu. The Kemasin-Semerak Project completed in 1996 to mitigate flooding by relocating the river of Sungai Semerak 3 kilometers northward. This project was deemed to be successful. Ho...
