Abstract
Sustainability of a watershed is typically infuenced by a variety of factors, including climatic, hydrological, environmental, social, economic, and biological ones. Water quality degradation and flash floods are the two main problems in Malaysian watersheds. In the last few decades, economic development activities have multiplied, impacting numerous watersheds, including the Skudai River watershed. This study divided the Skudai River watershed into 25 sub watersheds (SW), and it created a sustainability index for the watershed by taking into account factors for potential water quality degradation and potential flood damage. In Skudai River, very few reconstruction projects have undergone an impartial post-project appraisal. As a result, opportunities to use past experience to improve project design in the future have been lost. The importance of the project's goals, which were guided by geomorphology and ecology, is illustrated through a case study on the Muda River in Kedah. The study method involves revitalizing the Skudai River in the Johor district and treating the landscape as infrastructure.
