Seasonal Variability of Groundwater Quality in Kapas Island
Chapter Seasonal Variability of Groundwater Quality in Kapas Island, Terengganu, Malaysia Mohmadisa Hashim, Arijatul Wardah Ahmad, Zahid Mat Said, Nasir Nayan, Hanifah Mahat, Yazid Saleh and Koh Liew See Abstract The chapter aims to evaluate the groundwater quality levels in Kapas Island, Terengganu, Malaysia during the monsoon changes of the Southwest Monsoon (SWM), Monsoon Transition (MT) and Northeast Monsoon (NEM) in 2018. Four locations were used for groundwater sampling namely, the Kapas Coral Beach Resort, Kapas Beach Chalet, Pak Ya Seaview Chalet, and Kapas Island Resort. Three water samplings at each station for every month in the monsoon. Six parameters of the Malaysian Water Quality Index (WQI), i.e., dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS) and ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N), were used to evaluate the water quality. The findings showed the groundwater quality parameters are in Class I and II. However, according to WQI Malaysia, the water quality status during the three monsoons is slightly polluted. During the SWM, the WQI value was 76 (Class III), the MT was 77 (Class II), and the NEM was WQI 71 (Class III). Given this status, it requires more intensive water treatment as it is not suitable for direct drinking water supply. The implications of the study show that the quality of groundwater in Kapas Island has to improve by the tour operators. Keywords: water quality index, groundwater, slightly polluted, water treatment, island tourism 1. Introduction The increase in the population of an area will have an impact on the demand for clean water supply. -

ISBN 978-4-87803-036-9 Corresponding editor: Hiroyuki Motomura (e-mail: [email protected]) v Preface Tropical seas in Southeast Asian countries are well known for their rich fish diversity found in various environments such as beautiful coral reefs, mud flats, sandy beaches, mangroves, and estuaries around river mouths. The South China Sea is a major water body containing a large and diverse fish fauna. However, many areas of the South China Sea, particularly in Malaysia and Vietnam, have been poorly studied in terms of fish taxonomy and diversity. Local fish scientists and students have frequently faced difficulty when try- ing to identify fishes in their home countries. During the International Training Program of the Japan Society for Promotion of Science (ITP of JSPS), two graduate students of Kagoshima University, Mr. -

JAWAPAN :- Yang di-Pertua, 1. Untuk makluman Yang Berhormat, Projek Laluan Rel Pantai Timur (ECRL) yang ditambahbaik berdasarkan Perjanjian Tambahan atau Supplementary Agreement (SA) yang ditandatangani oleh Malaysia Rail Link Sdn. Bhd. (MRL), sebuah syarikat yang dimiliki sepenuhnya oleh Menteri Kewangan Diperbadankan dan kontraktor utama, China Communications Construction Company Ltd (CCCC) pada 12hb April 2019 akan menawarkan perkhidmatan pengangkutan penumpang dan kargo dari Kota Bharu ke Pelabuhan Klang. Projek ECRL ini bakal menghubungkan negeri-negeri pantai timur Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang dengan Negeri Sembilan, Selangor dan Wilayah Persekutuan Putrajaya. 2. Kajian teknikal telah dijalankan bersama diantara pihak MRL dan CCCC. Setelah mengambil kira penilaian kejuruteraan nilai yang komprehensif dalam semua aspek teknikal projek, hasil utama kajian ialah perubahan jajaran, ianya juga melibatkan perubahan lokasi stesen. Kedudukan stesen-stesen baru ini telah mengambil kira pelbagai faktor seperti aspek kejuruteraan keretapi, impak sosial, impak alam sekitar dan impak warisan. 3. Disamping itu juga, kedudukan stesen telah mengambil kira takupan penumpang dengan bandar atau pekan terdekat di dalam radius 20km. Perkhidmatan keretapi ECRL merupakan perkhidmatan keretapi antara bandar di mana jarak purata di antara setiap stesen adalah lebih kurang 30km. Secara tidak langsung, ianya bakal merangsang pertumbuhan ekonomi di sekitar stesen ECRL dan mewujudkan lebih banyak peluang pekerjaan baru. -

Vol. 2, No.1 December 2010 SEATRU Newsletter SEATRU Updates on Conservation, Research and Outreach Programs 2010 Message from the Team Leader This year seems to have flown by in a blink. Without realizing it, we are almost at the end of 2010. This year was the second year for my team with SEATRU. With hard work, dedication and commitments from my team members, I can conclude that this year went off better compared to last year. Off course we have encountered few obstacles along the way, but when we work as a team definitely we could overcome each hurdle. The best thing was, as of the previous year we had fun in performing our work, and we have ended this season with joy and laughter! This year the nesting at Chagar Hutang had increased compared to last year. Monitoring was conducted for the whole year from January to December 2010. We have recorded a total of 676 nesting, of which 661 were green turtle nests and 15 were hawksbill turtle nests. From these a total of 40,000 healthy hatchlings were returned back to the sea. Our sincere thanks to all SEATRU volunteers (Slot A to Slot Z) for helping us in monitoring and protecting turtle nests at Chagar Hutang. It has been 18 years since SEATRU first started the sea turtle conservation program at Chagar Hutang. The unit is still very much active and dedicated in saving the sea turtles even though project leaders have changed hands. It is because of your support and action that motivate us to keep on going. -

It is anticipated that a greater number of Flight Data Analysis Programs will lead to significantly greater safety levels through analysis of critical event sets and incidents. Action: The FDAP working group is requesting support for greater implementation of FDAP/FDMP throughout the Pan American Regions and consideration of new ICAO standards through the actions outlined in Section 4 of this working paper. Strategic Safety Objectives: References: Annex 6 ‐ Operation of Aircraft, Part 1 sections as mentioned in this working paper RASG‐PA ESC/28 ‐ WP/09 presented at the ICAO SAM Regional Office, 4 to 5 May 2017. 1. Introduction 1.1 Flight Data Recorders have long been used as one of the most important tools for accident investigations such that the term “black box” and its recovery is well known beyond the aviation industry. -

The study of National Coastal Erosion Study (NCES) on 2015 revealed that 8840 km of shoreline in Malaysia with 1,347.6 km were subjected to erosion. The present study selected seven locations in Kuala Terengganu since Terengganu is exposed to the northeast monsoon which could potentially cause coastal erosion. In order to identify the changes in the shoreline of the selected study areas, 2014SPOT-5 and 2016 WorldView-3 images were processed using ArcGIS software to determine the shoreline changes and to categorise the erosion which has occurred.
