Ground water quality of several wells in Jasin Melaka

A study of ground water from several wells was carried out in Jasin, Melaka to determine its suitability for drinking and domestic used. Four times sampling trips (n=4) had been done between June and October, 2000. Water parameters determined were temperature, pH, conductivity, color, turbidity, tot...
