Water quality at Tanjung Bajong Coast, Sebuyau, Sarawak

Coastal water samples were collected from 6 sampling stations in Tanjung Bajong coast, Sebuyau, Sarawak. Temperature, transparency, turbidity, depth, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and salinity were measured directly in-situ while water samples were collected and analyzed in the laboratory for...
