Distribution of fecal coliform and Escherichia coli (E.coli)in the estuaries and coastal water of Kuala Terengganu and Kuala Ibai, Terengganu

This study is conducted to evaluate the distribution of fecal bacteria counts including total coliform, fecal coliform and E. coli in the water, sediments and fishes of Kuala Terengganu, Kuala Ibai and coastal areas of Kuala Terengganu. Four sampling trips were conducted during July 2009, November 2...
