Heavy Metals Determination in the Rivers in Kuching City and Relationship of the Land-use Changes to the Heavy Metals Present in Water

Water is a source of life, nowadays, it become scarcity due to the anthropogenic activities especially the heavy metals which has polluted the river and become harmful for humans health. A study on concentration of heavy metals of surface water was carried out in three selected land-use; shipping ya...
