Abstract:Concentration of selected Metallic Element Contaminants (MECs) (Cd, Pb, Hg,Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn, Mg, Ca, Na and K), Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Total Nitrogen (TN) in the superficial layer of sediments from four fish farms in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea were studied in order to evaluate the environmental effects of marine aquaculture and to establish correlations between aquaculture and accumulation of selected Metallic Elements Contaminants (MECs)(Cd, Pb, Hg, Cu, Fe, Zn, Mg, Mn, K, Na and Ca). The levels of nu… Show more
