“…Despite this, Malaysia is considered a climate-related disaster-free zone [ 57 ]. The wave climate of Malaysia is dominated by the monsoon all over the year, with the highest average wind speed and erosion cases documented during the wet season, the northeast monsoon [ 57 , [68] , [69] , [70] ]. In Malaysia, the seasonal monsoon wind catalyzes coastal erosion [ [68] , [69] , [70] ].…”

“…Several critical issues on why Terengganu has been selected as a study area are addressed, with one notable aspect being its proneness to erosion. 23 The majority of Terengganu's beaches consist of both natural and man-made beach dunes, serving as protective barriers over sandy coastlines against high waves and water levels during severe storms. However, the monsoonal regime in this region, particularly during the northeast monsoon, 24 combined with various topographic conditions, has led to the loss of many parts of the beaches in Terengganu, disrupting the natural equilibrium of sediment balance and the longshore sediment drift circulation.…”

“…al [16], Ariffin et. al [17], and DID [18] have all supported changes in net transport due to these factors. Section-47 could not be simulated in this study because the cross shore section was not continuous, and it was also discovered from the data that sections 43 and 52 generated fairly unexpectedly high values, which are not acceptable and do not represent the actual local occurrence.…”

The erosion-prone zone is characterised by nearshore sand formed by the combined action of tides, wind, and recurring waves crashing on the beach. By running perpendicular to the coastline and bathymetry, 51 cross-shore sections were chosen from a total of 54 to study longshore transport along the beaches of Kelantan and Terengganu. The hydrodynamic model was used to determine water level, current speed, and spectral density, while the Spectral Wave Model and LitDrift were used to construct boundary wave variables and Net Transport across each sector. The model output was compared to previously published erosion-prone zones in the NCES Report (2015), and the results were agreed. The net transfer varies based on the angle of the coastline, the direction of the waves, and the beach profile. The net transport ranges from -693,000 m3/year to 444,000 m3/year depending on the beach profile, wave direction, and angle of the coastline. Net transit for each section was also calculated for 2030, 2050, and 2100, taking into consideration sea level rise. The most recent IPCC assessment (AR6) was applied to generate SLR forecasts for year 2030, 2050, and 2100. According to the statistics, all sections are expected to increase in year 2030, whereas only 53% and 67% are expected to develop in year 2050 and 2100, respectively. From 2030 to 2050 and 2100 to 2020, total net transport along the Kelantan and Terengganu beaches grows by 9.5%, 10%, and 4.5%, respectively.Net transportation is expected to grow until 2050, then steadily decline until 2100. However, by using a better anticipated wave model, the results of this inquiry can be improved.
