Application of 1-d analytical solution for salt intrusion investigation in the Kuantan estuary during low water
The increase of sea level and extreme dry weather due to climate change has increased the estuary water salinity. As the consequences, the sea water intrudes further into the fresh water region.

The increase of sea level and extreme dry weather due to climate change has increased the estuary water salinity. As the consequences, the sea water intrudes further into the fresh water region.

Hence, the aims of this are to 1) investigate the salinity intrusion profile in Kuantan Estuary during low water; 2) to test the applicability of 1-D analytical solution for salt intrusion investigation in the Kuantan Estuary; and 3) to verify and validate the Van der Burgh’s coefficient. Data collection of salinity started from the mouth of Kuantan Estuary up to the Kobat Barrage covering a distance of 18.40km.
