Seasonal influences on the levels of particulate Cd, Cr and Pb in Kuantan River, Pahang
Temporal and spatial variations of selected toxic element distributions were studied in the Kuantan River waters. Methods: Water samples from 9 sampling stations were taken from downstream of the estuary towards the upstream of the Kuantan River during the rainy and dry season. Particulate Cd, Cr an...
