Study on RIP current of Pengkalan Datu to Kuala Besar, Kelantan / Nik Ali Nik Cob

Rip Current is strong narrow current that flows from the beach towards to the sea. It is one of the main mechanism by which water brought forward to the shore by breaking waves is returned back to the sea to satisfy continuity. Due to its strength and relative difficulty to detect, the presence of r...
