Heavy Metals in Surficial Sediment from Bidong Island, Southern South China Sea. 330 $aBidong Island is a small island located in the South China Sea, and is about 14 km from mainland Peninsular Malaysia. The island and the Bidong archipelago boast of its richness in diversity of both terrestrial and marine organisms and its undeniably pristine and thriving ecosystem. In 1975?1990, Bidong Island was formerly a UNHCR refugee camp for a quarter of a million Vietnamese "Boat people" escaping the Vietnam War, and still holds great significance to many of its descendants. Due to its historical significance, the Terengganu State government plans to develop Bidong Island as a heritage tourism site and a new scuba diving destination. This book highlights the uniqueness of Bidong Island and its archipelago, paying particular attention to the biological aspect (which includes marine and terrestrial organisms) and the pollution status surrounding the island. These mainly focus on organisms of the open water and benthic ecosystems such as plankton, fishes, corals reef communities, crustaceans and foraminifera. In addition, we discuss terrene related topics, which includes tree diversity, lichens and also herpetofauna surrounding the Bidong Island. Indisputably an important topic, we also address the pollution status surrounding Bidong Island, with emphasis on heavy metals and its impact. Readers interested in the areas of environmental sciences should find this book appealing. This book can also be used by students and researchers when discussing about tropical environments on island ecosystems. We do hope that stakeholders that would partake in future interest of Bidong Island (particularly in tourism) are equally aware of the current health status of the island and would engage in conserving and sustaining the diversity and heritage of the archipelago for the benefit of the community. . 410 0$aGeography of the Physical Environment,$x2366-8873 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aFreshwater ecology 606 $aMarine ecology 606 $aBiotic communities 606 $aEcology 606 $aOceanography 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aFreshwater and Marine Ecology 606 $aEcosystems 606 $aBiooceanography 606 $aTerrestial Ecology 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aFreshwater ecology. 615 0$aMarine ecology. 615 0$aBiotic communities. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aOceanography. 615 14$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aFreshwater and Marine Ecology. 615 24$aEcosystems. 615 24$aBiooceanography. 615 24$aTerrestial Ecology. 676 $a508.5951 676 $a508.5951 702 $aChuan$b Ong Meng 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910547297603321 996 $aBidong Island$92784781 997 $aUNINA
