The aim of this study is to determine the anthropogenic effects in lake Gala Thrace Region and make an ecological risk analysis as a result these effects. Based on multi-element analyzes samples collected from by Grab Core method, using ICP-MS, which frequently used calculation sediment pollution studies; Ecological lakes with statistical such Enrichment Factor (EF), Contamination (CF), Geoaccu...

This study comprehensively investigated the distribution, source identification, and potential ecological risk of heavy metals (As, Ni, Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, Zn) in surface sediments Mongla port area Bangladesh. The sediment samples were collected from ten sampling points during wet dry season analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. average concentration metal was higher (11.36 to 118.55 mg/...

eight selected heavy metals (cu, zn, pb, cd, cr, mn, fe and al) in surface and sub-surfacesediments in the northern coast of sfax (tunisia) were studied in order to assess the sediment quality and tohighlight the anthropogenic contributions to heavy metal distributions in the two study sediment levels.multiple chemometric approaches based on geographic information system (gis), enrichment facto...

Background: The present study was carried out to assess the seasonal variations, source apportionment, and risk assessment of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, and Zn) in the surface sediments from the Khanpur Lake, Pakistan. Methods: Composite samples are collected and processed to measure the concentrations of heavy metals in Ca(NO3)2 extract and acid extract of the sediments using flame ...

Sulak alan ekosistemleri çok sayıda fauna ve flora türüne yaşam ortamı sunan, aynı zamanda insanların faydalandığı önemli doğal kaynak değerleridir. Son yıllarda artan antropojenik etkiler sulak alanlarda PTE kaynaklı ekolojik bozulmaya buralardan çeşitli yollarla faydalanan insanlar üzerinde sağlık risklerine neden olmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bozulma riski analizleri yapmak için analitik metotlar ...

Abstract The bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) of heavy metal (Fe, Zn, Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, and As) concentrations in benthic pelagic fish organs (muscles, gills, liver, hearts), metals water sediments Ogbese River, Ondo State, Nigeria were investigated. From the results, within permissible limits stipulated by World Health Organization (WHO). However, sediments, Fe, Mn higher than limits, while As...

Soil pollution by some heavy metals including: Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Mo, Cd and Pb from northern industrial area of Erbil City was assessed. The contamination indices geoaccumulation (Igeo), factor (CF), enrichment (EF), degree (Cdeg), load index (PLI) element (ECI) were applied to assess soil in North Industrial at three sites (for both surface sub-surface soils). Maximum Fe value 34243....

The total concentrations and chemical forms of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) in the surface sediments of the Laizhou Bay and the surrounding marine area of the Zhangzi Island (hereafter referred to as Zhangzi Island for short) were obtained and multiple indices and guidelines were applied to assess their contamination and ecological risks. The sedimentary conditions were fine in both...
