The Effect Of Deforestation On Catchment Response In The Tropical Climate Region: Case Study For Sungai Padas Catchment

Aktiviti perhutanan merupakan salah satu faktor penyebab kepada kemusnahan sistem sungai dan sistem ekologi dalam suatu kawasan tadahan. Aktiviti perhutanan telah menyebabkan beberapa bahagian di kawasan tadahan Sungai Padas mengalami perubahan tumbuhan tutup bumi, misalnya di kawasan Tambunan, Sook...
