Status and contamination level of water quality in Lake Chini, Malaysia

The study investigates the spatial variation and index of water quality in Tasik Chini (Chini Lake), Pahang, Malaysia. Water sampling was conducted from 15 representative sites within the lake including five major feeder rivers. Major physico-chemical indicators of water quality were analyzed using...
