Characteristics and Mineral Content of Sediment at Muara Pulau Kayu (MPK) of Southwest Aceh District
Study on sediment characteristics and mineral content at Muara Pulau Kayu (MPK) of Southwest Aceh District was conducted to find a general description of grain size and mineral content regarding to hydro-oceanographic process. Sampling was collected at MPK, Southwest Aceh District during March 2016....
