Lithogenic and Anthropogenic Components in Surface Sediments from Lake Limboto as Shown by Magnetic Mineral Characteristics, Trace Metals, and REE Geochemistry
Abstract:Lake Limboto is one of the major lakes in Sulawesi, Indonesia. It is currently undergoing serious degradation due to population pressure. As more residential areas have been established around the lake, the sedimentation rate has increased because of the contribution of anthropogenic particles. In this study, the lithogenic and anthropogenic components in surface sediments from 17 points in the lake were studied and identified using a combination of magnetic and geochemical analyses. The results showed that al… Show more
“…Table 1 shows the results of magnetic susceptibility measurements in terms of χ LF (low frequency mass-specific magnetic susceptibility; measured at 470 Hz), χ HF (high frequency mass-specific magnetic susceptibility; measured at 4700 Hz), and χ FD% (frequency-dependent magnetic susceptibility; defined as 100% × (χ LF – χ HF )/χ LF ). In general, the mass-specific magnetic susceptibilities of these three river sediments are much higher than that of the surface sediments in Lake Limboto [1]. Except for that of Talumelito River, the sediments near the lake are more magnetic than that from upstream locations implying that the rivers bring more magnetic anthropogenic components to the lake.…”

“…The mineral characteristics, trace metals, REE geochemistry of surface sediments in Lake Limboto has been reported elsewhere [1]. The properties have been widely used, among others, to distinguish anthropogenic components from the lithogenic components in lake [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6] as well in suspended river sediments [7], [8], [9], [10].…”
This article presents magnetic mineral characteristics, trace metals, and REE geochemistry of river sediments that serve as inlets to Lake Limboto, Sulawesi, Indonesia related to article entitled “Lithogenic and anthropogenic components in surface sediments from Lake Limboto as shown by magnetic mineral characteristics, trace metals, and REE geochemistry” [1]. River sediments were obtained from three rivers, namely Alopohu, Bionga, and Talumelito. Sieved sediments were subjected to magnetic susceptibility measurements as well as geochemical analyses that include AAS analyses for trace metals and ICP-OES for REE. Extracted magnetic grains were also subjected to magnetic hysteresis analyses as well as XRD and SEM analyses. These data are invaluable in identifying the contribution of each river (and its catchment area) to the surface sediments of Lake Limboto.

“…Table 1 shows magnetic susceptibility measurement data on Brantas river bulk surface sediment samples. Several other studies have shown that magnetic susceptibility measurement was not only conducted on sediments from rivers [3], [4] but also on sediments from coasts [5], [6] and lakes [7], [8] and other materials such as mineral deposit [9] and guano [10], [11]. Previous studies have shown that frequency-dependent magnetic susceptibility was used to determine superparamagnetic grain content in sediments [12], [13].…”
This article presents measurement data using environmental magnetism method on the bulk surface sediments related to the research article entitled “Heavy metal contents and magnetic properties of surface sediments in volcanic and tropical environment from Brantas River, Jawa Timur Province, Indonesia” Mariyanto et al., 2019. Surface sediments were taken from 20 different locations along Brantas River. In the laboratory, a series of magnetic measurements was conducted on sediment samples i.e. magnetic susceptibility, ARM (Anhysteretic Remanent Magnetization) and IRM (Isothermal Remanent Magnetization). These environmental magnetism data were used to characterize bulk surface sediments in the study area.
“…Cluster analysis shows that this group is most represented by SIRM (Supplementary Table S1). The magnetic parameters reflect a mixture of anthropogenic and geogenic inputs, however, the lack of statistical correlation observed between the magnetic parameters and Fe ( Supplementary Table S2), indicates an overriding anthropogenic magnetic signal (Yunginger et al, 2018). Some Ca is likely to derive from the surrounding limestone (CaCO 3 ) geology; however, the loading of Ca on PC2 instead of the minerogenic PC1 and strong correlations with SIRM, SOFT 20 , and χ LF , highlight an anthropogenic source.…”
Power et al. Histories of Urban Air Pollution pollution controls. It appears that air pollution remains an inevitable consequence of global industrialisation. It is therefore crucial to understand pollution histories in densely populated urban regions to determine environmental burdens of pollution on health over generational timescales.
