Assessment of Trace Metals in Water and Sediment in a Tropical River Potentially Affected by Land Use Activities in Northern Sarawak, Malaysia

This paper reports the trace metals in water and sediment of the Baram river in Northern Sarawak, Malaysia, a tropical river that is subjected to increasing land use activities, particularly logging. Water and sediment samples were collected from a total of 32 stations along the main and tributaries...
