Impact of Shoreline Changes to Pahang Coastal Area by using Geospatial Technology

Abstract: Malaysia has a long coastline stretching over 4,809 km where more than 1,300 km of beaches are experiencing erosion. Coastal erosion is recognised as the permanent loss of land and habitats along the shoreline resulting in the changes of the coast. Thus, it is important to detect and monitor shoreline changes especially in Pahang coast by identifying the rate of shoreline erosion and accretion. This study used temporal data and high spatial resolution imagery (SPOT 5) using remote sensing and GIS techniques to… Show more

“…This research focused on slope estimation along the coast of Kuantan to Pekan with ten specific zones in which critically eroded. The sites are selected to be eroded (K1 category/Critical category) based on National Coastal and Erosion Study [9] and its relationship of coastal profile. This coastline area situated about 15 km to the South from Kuantan, Pahang and up to 30 km in the North.…”

“…The coastal processes on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia are influenced by the monsoonal system brought from East Asia, which delivers a high intensity of linked physical natural phenomena associated with current speeds, tides, waves, winds, and rainfall frequency during the winter season and has a significant impact on the cycle of beach erosion and accretion in Malaysia. Peninsular Malaysia has a coastline length of 1,972 kilometres out of a total length of 4,809 kilometres (Ehsan et al 2019;Gill et al, 2014;Mohd et al 2018;Razak et al 2018), and more than half of the Peninsular coast is eroding.…”
