Ciri hidrologi dan hakisan tebing sungai di Sungai Lendu, Alor Gajah Melaka

Hydrological status and river bank erosion were studied in Lendu River catchment, Melaka. Data obtained from Batu Berendam climatological station was used to analysed hydrological status at the study area. Bank erosion measurement was also carried out using erosion pin technique. Data then were a...
