Abstract:
Boundary and land cover changes in Kelantan Delta islands dominated by several factors such
as strong wind, wave action, tidal period and sediment movement. Kelantan Delta land cover in
year 1966 is covered 72.4030 hectare and changed to 159.7073 hectare in year 1995 and
134.3301 hectare in year 2004. The changes also reported for land use in Kelantan Delta
islands where it is covered 16.0326 hectare in year 1966, 97.9946 hectare in year 1995 and
75.8725 hectare in year 2004. The drastic changes caused in year 1995 for both land cover and
land use are because of big flood event that occurred in 197 5. A lot of seedling and sediment
movement became very active during the flood event toward contributed for vegetation widely
in Kelantan Delta. This process is naturally occurred.
