Analysis for Wind Characteristics in Teluk Kalung, Kemaman, Terengganu

Wind characteristics namely wind speed and direction are very important in the determination of air pollutant concentration. The industrial development in Teluk Kalung which has been expanding every year definitely will further increase the load of air pollution to the nearby area. Sampling of win...
