Baseline of butyltin contamination in sediments of Sundarban mangrove wetland and adjacent coastal regions, India.
The study reports the first assessment for the quantification and speciation of butyltins (BTs) in surface marine sediment samples (0-5 cm) from intertidal mudflats of Sundarban mangrove wetland along with the Hugli (Ganges) river basin, eastern coastal part of India. Concentrations of tributyltin (TBT), dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT) were monitored at 16 stations and present at all st...
متن کاملArsenic speciation in polychaetes (Annelida) and sediments from the intertidal mudflat of Sundarban mangrove wetland, India.
This paper documents the concentration of total arsenic and individual arsenic species in four soft-bottom benthic polychaetes (Perenereis cultifera, Ganganereis sootai, Lumbrinereis notocirrata and Dendronereis arborifera) along with host sediments from Sundarban mangrove wetland, India. An additional six sites were considered exclusively for surface sediments for this purpose. Polychaetes wer...
متن کاملAn Assessment of Mercury Loading in Core Sediments of Sunderban Mangrove Wetland, India
This is a preliminary report on total mercury (THg) in core sediments (\63 lm particle size) of Sunderban mangrove wetland, northeastern part of the Bay of Bengal, India. Cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry (CVAAS) was used for THg determination. The concentration varies from 9.8 to 535.1 ppb (ngg). Results revealed variations over premonsoon and postmonsoon month at different core depth,...
متن کاملAssessment and Measurement of Heavy Metals Contamination in Sediments of Gandoman Wetland
Wetlands ecosystem is regarded as one of nature and tourism aspects. These ecosystems are of special ecological properties and unique biodiversity due to specific climate and ground conditions. Gandoman wetland is one of important wetlands and rich ecosystems in Chahar-mahal and Bakhtiari. Not considering the wetland environmental conditions has caused some problems and challenges. One of probl...
متن کاملInvestigation of Heavy Metal Contamination in the Surface Sediments of Anzali wetland in North of Iran
Over the last few decades, Anzali wetland has been at risk of pollutants, especially from heavy metals. The present research analyzes some physical and chemical properties and heavy metals concentration in 27 points in nine stations of Anzali wetland. The samples of each station have been mixed, acidic digested, and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The mean con...
