“…The elements Cd, Pb, Cu, and Zn are strongly correlated and also show a strong correlation with TAVS and a positive but weaker correlation with OM. Ni shows a Choi et al 2008 positive but weaker correlation with TAVS. The elements Co, Ni, Fe, and Al show a good correlation and are positively correlated with OM and clay fraction.…”

“…Regional background values assessed from core sediment samples are reported by Choi et al (2008) and offshore sediments in the Gulf of Thailand by Shazilli et al (1999). Background levels varied from 10 to 23 μg g −1 dry weight for Ni, from 10 to 25 μg g −1 dry weight for Cu, from 55 to 115 μg g −1 dry weight for Zn, from 5 to 9 μg g −1 dry weight for As, from 0.03 to 0.2 μg g −1 dry weight for Cd, from 15 to 30 μg g −1 dry weight for Pb, 370-720 μg g −1 dry weight for Mn, and (Fig.…”

The concentrations of Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb, As, Fe, Mn, and Al were determined in sediments and biota of Songkhla Lake, a shallow coastal lagoon located in southern Thailand. In June 2006, surface sediments were sampled in 44 stations in the three sections of the lake (inner-, middle-, and outer sections). Sediment cores were also sampled in 13 stations in three cross-sections of the lake. In surface sediments, trace and major elements, organic matter, sediment grain size analysis, and sulfides were determined, and in the sediment cores, redox profiles were made. Soil samples were also collected at garbage dumping sites in the vicinity of the lake. In addition, the metal accumulation in two catfish species (Arius maculatus and Osteogeneiosus militaris) and the crustacean (Apseudes sapensis) was also investigated. Trace element concentrations in sediments of Songkhla Lake show that, especially the Outer section of the lake, in particular the sediments at

In order to investigate the current distribution of metal concentrations in surface marine sediments of the southern coast of Sfax (Tunisia), thirty-nine samples were collected in the vicinity of a mixed industrial and domestic wastewater effluent discharge. In comparison with the threshold effect level and probable effect level, the majority of metals had high ecological and biological risks. Enrichment factor and geoaccumulation Index showed that the majority of sediments are unpolluted by As, Ni and Pb, moderately polluted by Cr and Cu and moderately to strongly polluted by P, Y, Zn. Besides, all sites are extremely polluted by Cd. Principal component analysis indicates that As, Cu and Ni were mainly from lithogenic sources, whereas Cd, Cr, F, P, Pb, Y and Zn were mainly derived from anthropogenic source. Findings of this research can be used as suitable reference for future studies and environmental management plans in the region.

Background and Objective: The use of wastewater for irrigation is a common practice among low-income farmers and is raising serious concerns about the status and contamination level of these farms with heavy metals. This research was carried out to identify the type and amount of heavy metals on the bank of River Sauna. Materials and Methods: The content of heavy metals, cadmium, copper, chromium, nickel and lead in five vegetable farms along River Sauna in Kano State was investigated. Data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis using the JMP package ecological risk assessment of each metal was also carried out. Results: Highly significant differences (p<0.001) in the soil properties across the farms were observed. Most of the farms were sandy loam, slightly acidic with low amounts of organic matter and high amounts of phosphorus. Significant differences in the amount of heavy metals across all the farms were observed with the highest amount of chromium (6.21 mg kgG 1 ) and copper (3.11 mg kgG 1 ) observed in farm 4. No significant difference was observed in the concentration of cadmium (p = 0.10) and nickel (p = 0.7) across all the farms. Generally, the concentrations of the metals were below the limits expected for arable lands. Conclusion: The amount of heavy metals was observed to be far below the permissible limit and pose a low ecological risk. Practices and legislation to prevent heavy metal build-up in the soils are suggested to be adopted.
