Indeks kualiti air di sekitar kawasan lombong di Pelepah Kanan, Kota Tinggi Johor
This study was carried out to determine the water quality index at the Pelepah Kanan River, Kota Tinggi, Johor. Six stations were chosen from different part of the river from upstream to downstream to represent the water quality index along this river. Three replicates of samples were taken from eac...
