Assessment of zn, fe mn and ni pollution around agriculture area by using mosses as biomonitor / Nur Amalina Ahmad
The aim of this study was to determine the concentration of Zn, Fe, Mn and Ni in the moss samples around Felda Mawar Jengka 10 plantation area, Bandar Pusat Jengka, Pahang. Eight samples were collected from two locations where each of the location has four different sites with different distances fr...
