The geochemical characteristics of sediment in Tondano Lake, Indonesia: heavy metals and organic matter contents, and grain size distribution

Abstract: Sediment quality of Tondano Lake, Indonesia has been investigated through measuring the geochemical characteristics such as the content of heavy metals, organic matter and grain size distribution; and also the relationship between heavy metals and organic matter, and between heavy metals and grain size distribution. These could be used as preliminary data for the purpose of evaluating lake condition as a part of freshwater ecosystem. The Tondano sediment had contained some heavy metals such as Cr, Cu, Hg, and … Show more

“…It has been shown previously those vertical profiles of the metals in WFC and EFC showed differently, and no consistent correlation between metals and grain size. Commonly, the metal profiles in sediment are related to the environmental deposition and input of metals (Buccolieri et al, 2006;Duquesne et al, 2006 andSinolungan et al, 2008). This anomaly was very likely stimulated by the difference between two sampling locations in which EFC was located seawards direction making this location to be more exposed to seawater than WFC.…”

“…Secara umum, danau merupakan perairan umum daratan yang memiliki fungsi penting bagi pembangunan dan kehidupan manusia. Danau Tondano merupakan salah satu sumberdaya alam vital di Kabupaten Minahasa Provinsi Sulawesi Utara, yang memiliki berbagai peruntukkannya, antara lain: sebagai sumber air (air minum, lahan pertanian, budidaya ternak, perikanan), pariwisata dan sumber pembangkit tenaga listrik (Sinolungan, et al, 2008). Dengan adanya berbagai peruntukkan Danau Tondano yang diikuti dengan pertambahan jumlah penduduk, maka semakin bertambah pula kebutuhan masyarakat terhadap sumberdaya tersebut, sehingga terdapat berbagai permasalahan, antara lain: sedimentasi dan pendangkalan danau, yang terjadi karena adanya erosi lahan di daerah tangkapan air serta lahan sempadan danau yang terakumulasi oleh endapan/sedimen pada perairan danau (Wilar dan Mandagi, 2010).…”
