Evaluation of Selected Metals and Water Quality Parameten in Sarawak River

Sarawak River is an important river in Sarawak as it serves many purposes to the local people, such as for transportations, tourisms and seafood sources. However, these activities could possible contribute pollutants (e.g. metals) into the river waters which might give negative impacts to the river...
