To determine the boundary of saline groundwater inflow to the region of Sungai Melaka and Sungai Cenang basin at Langkawi Island / Jamal Nasir
The water resources of small islands are often very limited. Many have no surface water resources and rely on limited underground water resources. This paper presents a hydrological research to the boundary of saline ground water inflow for Langkawi Island .A geophysical survey is carried out and un...
