  • A Study on Tuaran River Channel Planform and the Effect of Sand Extraction on River Bed Sediments
    Transactions on Science and Technology Vol. 4, No. 4, 442 - 448, 2017 A Study on Tuaran River Channel Planform and the Effect of Sand Extraction on River Bed Sediments Jayawati Montoi1#, Siti Rahayu Mohd.

E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel: +6088-260311; Fax: +6088-240150. ABSTRACT River sand extraction is known as one of the main factors that induces the significant changes on river planform. This paper main objective is to study on the significance of planform changes on Tuaran River from 2003 to 2016 and sediment composition changes due to this activity. The study on channel planform focuses on four single wavelength channel bends which are located at the downstream of Tuaran River. Two meander features which are the channel width (w) and radius of curvature (Rc) were measured from digitized Google Earth satellite image year 2003, 2013, 2014 and 2016 and overlay with the Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia (JUPEM) topographic map using Geographic Information System (GIS) software and georeferenced to World Geodetic System (WGS) 1984. Four sites which are located at the downstream of Tuaran River were selected to determine the river bed sediments composition. Three of the four sites are located at the sand extraction area whilst one site is a controlled area with no sand extraction activity. River bed sediments were collected and the sediments composition was analyzed using Mann Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests to determine the composition difference between the areas and the inner parts of the river.

Sahari Preface In Sabah, around 53% of the total state land is designated as protected area or conservation site within which human activities are strictly regulated. A large scale plantation industry has been put in place and population growth has been the threats for natural resources around and near the border of protected area and conservation site. There have been increasing needs to develop new incentive mechanism for the better natural resource management. In the meantime, regardless of rapid economic development in Malaysia, Sabah is still suffering from poverty. Most of the needy people live in the mountainous area, thus rural development for poverty eradication is essential for human well-being. Sabah needs to pursue way toward a society in harmony with nature where harmonization between conservation and development can be realized. Sabah has some outstanding management systems like land-use control and environment awareness programme (Environmental Education). In order to promote environment-friendly and sustainable development more, integrated and innovative approaches are indispensable. Considering the above-mentioned matters, IlCA-SDBEC conducted the study on "Economics of River Basin Management for Sustainable Development for Biodiversity and Ecosystems Conservation" from December 2014 to February 2015.

The Convention outlines three main objectives: (1) the conservation of biological diversity; (2) the sustainable use of the components of biological diversity, and (3) the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits arising from the utilization of genetic resources. In 2010, in view of the continued decline of global biodiversity, parties to the CBD, in Nagoya, Japan, adopted the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020 with the purpose of inspiring broad-based action in support of biodiversity over the next decade by all countries and stakeholders. The Strategic Plan has 20 headline targets termed the “Aichi Biodiversity Targets”, organised under five strategic goals that address the underlying causes of biodiversity loss, reduce the pressures on biodiversity, safeguard biodiversity at all levels, enhance the benefits provided by biodiversity, and provide for capacity-building.

Since it was published in 1951, fundamentally new geological concepts have been introduced and the penetration of geologists into what at the time was still largely a “terra incognita” has greatly advanced our comprehension of the Sabah geology.

    PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE FIRST REGIONAL TECHNICAL CONSULTATION OF INFORMATION FOR INLAND CAPTURE FISHERIES IN THE ASEAN COUNTRIES IN KUALA LUMPUR ON 4-6 AUGUST, 2003 TITLE : CURRENT INFORMATION ON INLAND CAPTURE FISHERY IN SABAH, MALAYSIA BY Jephrin Zefrinus Wong Department of Fisheries Sabah, Malaysia 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PROFILE OF SABAH Sabah is situated on the northern tip of the island of Borneo ( Figure 1 ). It is the second largest state in Malaysia covering an area 73,711 square km with a coastline of 1,600 km. The average temperature and rainfall is 23 C to 32 C and 2,400 mm per annum respectively. Figure 1. Map of Sabah The population of Sabah is approximately 2.6 million. It is basically an agricultural state. Over 70% of population live in rural area and the majority are dependent directly or indirectly on agriculture, livestock and fisheries for their livelihood and which contribute very significantly towards the export earnings of the state. Sabah is a net exporter of marine fish products. Administratively Sabah is divided into 24 districts where Department of Fisheries Sabah have set up offices in all these districts. Collection of fisheries statistics are done by the district fisheries offices. 1 1.2 SABAH FISHERIES SECTOR The fisheries sector of Sabah is divided into four sub-sectors : • Marine capture fisheries • Marine aquaculture • Inland capture fisheries • Freshwater aquaculture The economic contribution of these sub-sectors to the state is shown in Table 2. Of the four sub-sectors, the marine capture fisheries gives the highest economic contribution and the inland capture fisheries , the least of the four.

It is one of the primary industrial, cultural and commercial centres of the region, and is the fourth largest commercial area in Sabah (following Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan and Tawau). Penampang is the cultural centre of the Kadazan and Dusun, largest indigenous groups in Sabah. The name Penampang comes from the title of one of the earliest villages in the area. The District Council was first established there in 1958, and was originally known as the Jesselton Rural District Council, referencing an earlier name of Kota Kinabalu.

  • 6 Surface Sediment Analysis on Heavy Metals in Coastal
    BORNEO SCIENCE 34: MARCH 2014 SURFACE SEDIMENT ANALYSIS ON HEAVY METALS IN COASTAL AREA OF UMS – TUARAN, SABAH Siti Aishah Mohd Ali1,2*, Tan Wei Hsiang1, Rohana Tair1,2, Apsa Abdul Naser1, & Fatin Sualin1 1School of Science and Technology, 2Water Research Unit, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Jalan UMS, 88400 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah * Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Heavy metal concentrations (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn) were investigated in surface sediments from Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) - Tuaran coastal area, Sabah. Samples were collected using Ponar grab sampler in ten different stations at the site area. The heavy metals were analyzed using Inductively Coupled Plasma – Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) after the surface sediments were digested with aqua regia (HNO3: HCl) solution. The overall mean and range of heavy metal concentrations in the surface sediments were: Cd (0.55, 0.27 - 1.06 mg/kg), Cr (4.93, 1.97 - 10.30 mg/kg), Cu (7.40, 0 – 18.57 mg/kg), Pb (3.88, 0 – 14.4 mg/kg) and Zn (31.84, 11.60 - 67.1 mg/kg) respectively. Overall, the heavy metal concentrations in surface sediments were not exceeded the Interim Sediment Quality Guidelines (ISQG) limit except for Cd which a bit higher than 0.7 mg kg-1 indicating considered slightly pollute. KEYWORDS. Heavy metals, ICP-OES, aqua-regia solution, surface sediments INTRODUCTION Sediments are categorized as heterogeneous mixture, in which it involves solids particles of relatively large size, suspended and distributed in liquids (Mudroch & Azecue, 1995). The particle size of sediment affects the depth and ease for some organism to burrow in sediment.
