Padas
Catchment
The research has been carried out for Sungai Padas catchment,
located at the south-western part of Sabah, lies between
latitude 030 30(N) and 060 10(N) and longitude 1150 10(E)
and 1160 50(E). The catchment is the second largest
catchment in Sabah, which comprises of five (5) districts
include Tambunan, Keningau, Tenom, Sipitang, and Beaufort
district. The fraction of the catchments has been divided into
152 smaller subcatchments according to the geographical
topography features. The total area of the catchment is
approximately 8,668 km2. There are three (3) major river
tributaries which lead to the catchment division into three river
systems, they are Sungai Pegalan catchment, Sungai Sook
catchment, and Sungai Padas catchment (upstream). The
cathmnent area has been divided into six (6) subcatchments for
the study purposes as shown in Figure 2, this includes Sub-A,
B, C, D1, D2, and E. Primary and secondary forests are the
main vegetation cover of the catchment area (Figure 3). The
primary forest is the undisturbed natural forest which is mostly
covering the hilly and mountainous area at the upstream,
whereas secondary forest is the disturbed forest due to some
deforestation activities such as loggings and agriculture which
are mainly dominating the downstream at the lower elevation
area. The Sungai Padas catchment valley is mainly subjected to
some agriculture activities such as paddy plantations, mix types
of crops and some large scale agricultures such as oil palm and
rubber. Urbanization areas are very small within the catchment
and they particularly located at the plain area near to the
downstream. Small towns within the catchment are located at
Tambunan, Keningau, Tenom, and Beaufort town. Smaller
towns are located Ansip, Biah, and Kemabong town.
In general, the catchment is mostly dominated by
mountainous and hilly region with steep geographical surface
conditions particularly at the upstream areas. Most hilly region
catchment rises up to 1230 m (4050 ft) above sea level. At the
western part of the catchment the Crocker Range rises up to
1548 m (5080 ft) a.s.l. (above sea level). Witti Range and
Maitland Range are lying as the catchment border at the
eastern and south-eastern part of the catchment (Figure 4).
Sungai Pegalan and Sungai Padas proper is the major tributary
of the Sungai Padas. Sungai Sook is the main tributary of the
Sungai Pegalan where they joined near Biah town. Sungai
Pegalan confluenced with the Sungai Padas at Tenom and
continues flowing northwest, between the Crocker Range
valley and the Tenom gorge to Beaufort. The river meanders
across the Klias Peninsula and finally discharged at the river
mouth to the Brunei Bay.

Figure 6 and 7 show the landcover pattern before and after the
year 1984. It is obviously seen that the deforestation area at the
catchment has been increased. The primary forest areas are
reduced after the year 1984 due to the deforestation activities
especially from logging works. The percentage of conversion of
primary forest area into disturbed forest area at Sungai Padas
catchment was approximately 11%. Disturbed forest includes
all deforested areas such as secondary forest, logged forest and
bared areas as displayed on the topographic maps.

types (Figure 9). The soil type information indicated that the
most dominant parental soil types within the Sungai Padas
catchment is consisted of sandstone and mudstone that is
classified into soil Type-B. The area of Subcatchment-C and
Subcatchment-D1 and D2, are consisted of parent material soil
from sandstone, mudstone, and alluvium, which are classified
into Type-C soil. Soil classes imply the soil infiltration rate,
according to the SCS soil classification standard. Soil Type-B
and C has the moderate infiltration rates, which potentially to
produce moderate runoff (USDA).
