Fresh water scarcity is considered a significant component, and potentially one of the most critical, global climate change. With rapid development industry, there an increasing risk freshwater contamination by heavy metals (HMs). The danger HM pollution also attributed to their accumulation, which can subsequently become source secondary in aquatic environments. In Lake Gusinoe basin, located ...

Pollutants are persistent in the environment, taint food chain, and harm people's health because of their toxicity. In this study, mangrove snails called Cerithidea obtusa (C. Obtusa) were gathered from Southwest Johor, Malaysia, amounts macro micro elements Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Na, As, Mn, Zn soft tissues, shells, related surface sediments analysed. The Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) method was u...

Kawasan muara merupakan salah satu ekosistem perairan yang sering mengalami kontaminasi logam berat seperti nikel (Ni), cadmium (Cd), timbal (Pb), dan merkuri (Hg). Kontaminasi tersebut biasanya berasal dari aktivitas manusia kegiatan rumah tangga, perkapalan, industri. Salah wilayah terletak di sekitar kawasan adalah laut Pulau Pasaran. ini terkenal sebagai sentra pembuatan ikan asin Provinsi ...

Background: Industrial pollution of metals is a serious environmental concern. The presence Sarcheshmeh copper (Cu) mine and the possibility soil pollution, were primary motivations for evaluating heavy in this area. Methods: A total 171 10 sediment samples collected randomly from study area Cu, aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) determination. USEPA method was used to acid...

the inter-tidal mangrove environment of mengkabong lagoon is important as it supports the local fishing activities, nursery grounds for many fish and shellfish species, and as well as being central for ecotourism activities. the study showed that in general, the physicochemical parameters (ph, salinity and electrical conductivity), granulometric fractions, organic matter, base cations (na, k, c...

Recently, one of the major environmental issues is pollution soil with Antimony (Sb), which ecologically detrimental and potentially carcinogenic to humans. In developing countries such as Iran, Sb concentrations in soils have not yet been accurately determined. Therefore, purpose this study was examine levels other HMs (Pb, Cd, As, Ni, Hg Cr) surface Bojnourd, well their distribution potential...

Data dealing with the assessment of heavy metal pollution in road dusts in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and its implication to human health risk of human exposure to heavy metals, are scarce. Road dusts were collected from five different functional areas (traffic areas (TA), parking areas (PA), residential areas (RA), mixed residential commercial areas (MCRA) and suburban areas (SA)) in Jeddah and one ...
