EFFECTS OF BENGOH DAM CONSTRUCTION ON SEDIMENTATION AND EROSION IN THE SARAWAK KIRI RIVER 文莪大坝建设对左砂拉越河沉积和侵蚀的影响
The Bengoh Dam was constructed to secure reliable raw water supply to Kuching and its surrounding areas until 2030. However, the changes in river morphology along the Sarawak Kiri River after the Bengoh Dam construction remain unknown. This research was conducted to study the impact of Bengoh Dam c...
