Spatial variation characteristics of selected soils in the Tasik Chini watershed, Pahang, Malaysia

This study was carried out to assess the properties of soils in Tasik Chini watershed. Approximately 2741.52 ha of the total study area were selected for soil analyses. The physico-chemical properties and nutrient content were analyzed according to standard methods. The analyses showed that the sand...
