چکیده

studies have showed the river siahroud is the main contributor to the present pollution of anzali wetland in guilan. therefore, this study was initiated to evaluate the spatial distribution of metals pollution on the river siahroud sediments in guilan.surfacial river sediment samples along this river were taken during five consecutive seasons at eight sampling stations and analyzed for availability of fe, mn, pb, zn, cu, cr, cd metals. canonical correlation demonstrated that the total organic carbon (toc) was of great importance in co-precipitation of zn while cu and pb were mainly related to hydrous iron oxides. also, in the interest of pollutant finger printing, factor analysis showed that extractable zn, cu, fe, cd and mn were attributed to the present agricultural fields while industrial site of rasht city was the major contributing factor for the extended levels of cr in the study area. moreover, pb level was mainly relevant to urban landuse in rasht. cluster analysis demonstrated that there was a rising metal pollution level in the river siahroud from upstream to downstream suggesting that anzali wetland pollution could be highly related to loading of heavy metals by the river siahroud sediment.

Heavy metal contamination in surface sediments of four important rivers leading to the Caspian Sea

Heavy metals tend to be adsorbed and accumulated in sediments as opposed to water or suspended solids. Sediments and biota bodis can act as a final sink for heavy metals in the aquatic environments. They accumulate through the food chain posing potential biological and ecological risks. Therefore, research on the heavy metal concentrations in aquatic ecosystems can help to protect human health ...

Evaluation of the status of heavy metal pollution in surface water and sediments of the Nil River (North Eastern Algeria)

Water and sediment samples were collected from six different stations, located along the Nil River between February and June 2015. Concentrations of cadmium, lead, zinc, and copper were determined. The extent of the sediment pollution was assessed, using the multiple pollution indices, namely contamination factor (CF), pollution load index (PLI), and the geoaccumulation index (Igeo). The result...
