Spatial Variation of Water Quality Parameters in Gebeng Industrial Area, Pahang, Malaysia

The study was conducted to examine the physico-chemical parameters of surface water quality in the Gebeng Industrial area, Pahang, Malaysia. Water samples were collected monthly from the selected 10 sampling site in the study area. The selected parameters were analyzed based on in-situ and ex-situ a...
