Heavy metals in coastal sediments of South Caspian Sea: natural or anthropogenic source?
This paper focuses on heavy metal distribution patterns in sediments of central Guilan (CG) and east Mazandaran (EM) in the south Caspian Sea coasts, north of Iran. Sediment sub-samples were retrieved from core and surficial samples in different environments of marine and coastal lagoons as well as coastal outcrops. Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry and Atomic Emission Spectrometry (...
متن کاملInvestigation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and index metals (Ni & V) on Gammarus’s tissue (Pontogammarus maeoticus) and coastal sediments of the Caspian Sea ; Guilan Province
The southern part of the Caspian Sea is one of the most important habitats for Gammarus (Pontogammarus maeoticus) species. These areas are surfing under the influence of persistent pollutants such as heavy metals, petroleum hydrocarbons and their derivatives. In this study, the concentration of nickel (Ni), vanadium (V) as oil pollution indices, and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) in Gammarus...
متن کاملAssessment of the distribution, bioavailability and ecological risk assessment of heavy metals in the coastal sediments of Qeshm Island (Hormozgan)
Sediment samples were collected from 8 sites in the northern areas of Qeshm Island, Iran to determine the total and partial concentrations of heavy metals including copper (Cu), lead (Pb), nickel (Ni), cadmium (Cd), and Iron (Fe), in February 2016. A combination of nitric acid and perchloric acid was used to determine the total concentrations and sequential extraction method was used to analyze...
متن کاملInvestigating Acanthamoeba in Coastal Waters of Caspian Sea in Guilan Province, Iran
Background: Acanthamoeba spp., can cause severe and fatal diseases including encephalitis, skin granulomatous and keratitis. Contaminated waters can be a threat to high risk people such as contact lens wearers, patients with eye surgery or eye trauma, and immunocompromised patients. Objective: The present study aims to investigate the presence of potentially pathogenic Acanthamoeba in coastal...
متن کاملLand use effects on heavy metal pollution of river sediments in Guilan, southwest of the Caspian sea
Studies have showed the River Siahroud is the main contributor to the present pollution of Anzali Wetland in Guilan. Therefore, this study was initiated to evaluate the spatial distribution of metals pollution on the River Siahroud sediments in Guilan.Surfacial river sediment samples along this river were taken during five consecutive seasons at eight sampling stations and analyzed for availabi...
