Distribution of foraminifera in the setiu estuary and lagoon, terengganu, malaysia

TL;DR: Five biofacies recognized by cluster analysis of live foraminiferal data exhibit similar salinity-related distribution patterns as the thanatofacies; their distribution is closely related to variations in salinity and other parameters related to the hydrodynamics of the region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sediment accretion and variability of sedimentological characteristics of a tropical estuarine mangrove: Kemaman, Terengganu, Malaysia

TL;DR: In this paper, a study on sediment accretion and variability of sedimentological characteristics was conducted on an estuarine mangrove in the Kemaman district with the aims of determining the average annual accretion rate, the monthly accretion Rate variability, sediment distribution and its variability within the mangroves area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Open Sandy Beach Morphology and Morphodynamic as Response to Seasonal Monsoon in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia

TL;DR: Ariffin et al. as mentioned in this paper studied the response of five beaches in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia to seasonal monsoon storms and found that anthropogenic infastructure such as an extension to an airport runway similar in design to a groin affect morphology and morphodynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grain-size distribution and subsurface mapping at the Setiu wetlands, Setiu, Terengganu

TL;DR: In this paper, a study was carried out around the lagoon and coastal area of Setiu wetlands to determine the general characteristics and grain-size distribution of their sediments, and the results showed that the major portions of the sediment are negatively skewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Holocene coastal response to monsoons and relative sea-level changes in northeast Peninsular Malaysia

TL;DR: Sedimentological, geomorphic, and ground penetrating radar (GPR) data are combined with optically stimulated luminescence data to define the Holocene evolution of a coastal system in peninsular Malaysia as mentioned in this paper.
