Analysis of Trace Metal Concentration in Rainwater Samples Collected from Spatially Separated Coastal Cities Facing the South China Sea in Northern Sarawak, Borneo
Abstract:A comparative analysis of trace metal (Cu, Pb, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cd, Ni and Co) concentration and physical parameters (pH, EC, TDS and DO) in rainwater samples collected from two major coastal cities in Malaysian Borneo (Sarawak state) were determined in the present research. Cumulative monthly rainwater samples were collected from the Limbang city and Miri city during October 2016–September 2017. Rainwater collected from the Limbang city shows slightly alkaline nature with a mean pH≥6.07 whereas the rainwater in Mi… Show more
