Arrangement of fishponds and recreation water basins are among most actual directions of technogenic environment recultivation. However, mentioned approach demands constant monitoring of different pollutants content in abiotic and biotic components of created hydroecosystem. This paper presents results of investigations of cobalt and nickel concentration in the water, bottom deposits and ichthyofauna of Yavoriv water storage basin – water reservoir, which was formed in the place of sulfur career. Mentioned elements are characterized by wide spectrum of action in fish body, which, depending on their concentration, can be either physiologic or toxic. During the experiment was revealed, that cobalt concentration in the water of Yavoriv water storage basin was within the normal range, while nickel concentration exceed MPL from 1.26 to 7.65 times depending on sampling place. Concentration of abovementioned elements in the bottom deposits of water basin in different fields of it varied greatly, wherein well–defined correlation between cobalt and nickel level in the water and bottom deposits wasn’t observed. The researches testified also the existence of tissue, organic and species peculiarities of cobalt and nickel accumulation in the body of rudd and perch. In particular, the biggest content of researched elements was observed in the gills of the fishes. Herewith, cobalt concentration in rudd gills exceeds MPL in 3.25 times, in perch gills – in 4.75 times. Nickel concentration in the muscles, gills and skin of rudd exceeds existing normative values in 1.16, 2.25 and 2.32 times respectively; in the muscles, gills and skin of perch – in 1.08, 6.84 and 3.1 times respectively.
The paper presents results of investigations of zinc and manganese concentration in the water, bottom deposits and ichthyofauna of Yavoriv water reservoir, which was formed in 2002 in frames of project of Yavoriv sulfur quarry revitalization. Mentioned elements are characterized by wide spectrum of action in fish body, which, depending on their concentration, can be either physiologic or toxic. It was revealed, that concentration of Zn and Mn in the water of Yavoriv water reservoir varied considerably depending on place of samples taking. The lowest Zn concentration in the water was below 1 MPL (maximum permitted level), namely 0.6 µg/l, and the highest – more than 7 MPL (70.5 µg/l). Similar differences were observed concerning Mn concentration in the water – the range of determined values varied from 3.3 (0.3 MPL) to 48.6 µg/l. The same peculiarities of Zn and Mn distribution were estimated in regard to their content in bottom deposits. In particular, difference of Zn concentration in samples of bottom deposits was near 23 times – from 5.4 to 230.0 mg/kg depending on the point of samples taking. Mn content in bottom deposits varies from 61.5 to 1500 mg/kg. Zn and Mn concentration in skeletal muscles, gills and skin of perch and rudd didn’t exceed MPL regardless their content in the water and bottom deposits. In most of cases, gills accumulated these elements more than other investigated tissues.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
