Effects of anthropogenic activities on the heavy metal levels in the clams and sediments in a tropical river
The present study aimed to assess the effects of anthropogenic activities on the heavy metal levels in the Langat River by transplantation of Corbicula javanica. In addition, potential ecological risk indexes (PERI) of heavy metals in the surface sediments of the river were also investigated. The co...
