Evaluation of catchment characteristics in Pahang

Catchment is one way to overcome the problem of flooding, particularly in rapidly growing urban areas. The main aim of the design of a catchment area is for collecting water that falls to earth as rain, and make sure all of water will flow from the catchment area into the same outlet. Catchment outl...
