Microplastic pollution in St. Lawrence River sediments
Although widely detected in marine ecosystems, microplastic pollution has only recently been documented in freshwater environments, almost exclusively in surface waters. Here, we report microplastics (polyethylene microbeads, 0.40– 2.16 mm diameter) in the sediments of the St. Lawrence River. We sampled 10 freshwater sites along a 320 km section from Lake St. Francis to Québec City by passing s...
متن کاملMicroplastic pollution in deep-sea sediments.
Microplastics are small plastic particles (<1 mm) originating from the degradation of larger plastic debris. These microplastics have been accumulating in the marine environment for decades and have been detected throughout the water column and in sublittoral and beach sediments worldwide. However, up to now, it has never been established whether microplastic presence in sediments is limited to...
متن کاملEvaluation of heavy metal pollution in sediments, water and macrobenthos of Hur Al-Azim wetland (Khuzestan)
Background and Objectives: Chemical storage of water cannot provide complete information about the extent of bioavailability of metals in the environment, while the study of this storage in the chain of water, sediment and macrobenthos can make the rate of rotation and storage risk more visible in ecosystems. Hur Al-Azim wetland is located in the west of Khuzestan Province. Large parts of it ha...
متن کاملPollution Assessment some of Heavy Metals in Water and Surface Sediments of Nasseri Wetland (Khorramshahr)
Background and Aim:This research was conducted of determining and comparing the heavy metals of zinc, iron, manganese, copper, nickel and vanadium in summer in waters and sediments of Naseri wetland in Khuzestan province, 2017. Material and Methods:Sampling of water and sediments from three areas of north, central and southern Naseri wetland was carried out in summer. In order to measure heavy...
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...
