Interpolation map of salinity is a helpful scientific instrument for environmental monitoring and for social economic development especially for the community who lived in Sungai Merbok. This research was conducted to develop a spatial model of salinity using spline interpolation technique. 20 sampling stations were randomly set up to measure the level of salinity using YSI 650 Multiparameter Display System (MDS). Quantitative analysis of standard regression and error index were used to evaluate the developed model. The research found that the tension splines type performed better than regularized splines type. The local government and community, who live in Sungai Merbok, can use the developed map of salinity for guidelines and future development of Sungai Merbok, Kedah.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
