Abstract
This thesis is an investigation of the wave power resource in the Terengganu
nearshore area. The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of the nearshore
spectra wave model and hence used the simulated result to assess the wave power
potential. The MIKE-21 Neashore Spectral Wave (MIKE-21 NSW) model has the
potential of serving as a tool for obtaining accurate estimates of wave field condition
along the Terengganu nearshore area. Generally, the transformation of the offshore wave field, as it propagates into this area, is computed by using hindcast input wave data from the European Center for Medium Range Weather Forecast‗s (ECMWF) (70 m water depth), as a boundary
data. The accuracy of the modelled output was investigated by directly comparing it
to the available Acoustic Wave and Current (AWAC) observation wave data (16 m
water depth) during the overlapping recording period.
