Seawater intrusion into groundwater, peninsular Malaysia

Industrialization has led to the contamination of the environment including groundwater in the form of chemical and mineral waste Monitoring of important parameters is essential to evaluate the situation and be in a position to intervene if necessary. In this study the parameters monitored were pH,...
