1 | 2022 thesis | Influence of rainfall, air temperature, physical and chemical water profiles on Cyanobacteria Biovolume in Slim River lake, Perak, Peninsular Malaysia Yonis Ahmed Kitan This study aimed to identify the influence of rainfall, air temperature, physical and
chemical water profiles on cyanobacteria biovolume in Slim River Lake, Perak,
Peninsular Malaysia. Water samples were collected twice per month for 12 months in five
sampling stations (S1-S5) to represent the lake’s overall condition. Samplings were
consistently conducted at the same time in the morning to reduce the influence of
surrounding air temperature variations. The physical, chemical, and biological parameters
were analysed according to American Public Health Association (APHA) standard
methods. Rainfall and air temperature data were obtained from the Malaysian
Meteorological Department. Data were successfully collected and the results indicated
that Slim River Lake's physical, chemical, and biological water profiles were highly
variable on a temporal scale. Total phosphorus, total nitrogen, chemical oxygen demand,
chlorophyll-a and biovolumes of Microcystis spp. were recorded as ..... 669 hits |
