Twentieth century overview of heavy metals in the Galician Rias (NW Iberian Peninsula)

TL;DR: There is an urgent need to standardize procedures, employ 'clean' procedures to avoid contamination of samples and regular assessment of analytical accuracy with CRMs in order that results can be compared among the scientific community and produce reliable results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of coastal marine pollution in Galicia (NW Iberian Peninsula); metal concentrations in seawater, sediments and mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) versus embryo-larval bioassays using Paracentrotus lividus and Ciona intestinalis.

TL;DR: Sediments from three Galician Rias tested for toxicity using sea-urchin and ascidian sediment elutriate embryo-larval bioassays revealed that samples assessed as toxic were among the most polluted by trace metals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heavy metal sedimentary record in a Galician Ria (NW Spain): background values and recent contamination

TL;DR: Two long sediment cores were sampled at the Ferrol Ria and the heavy metal concentrations measured in order to state accurate background values providing baseline relationships with respect to a reference element and to investigate the recent metal contamination trends.
Journal ArticleDOI

Porewater geochemistry in a Galician Ria (NW Iberian Peninsula): Implications for benthic fluxes of dissolved trace elements (Co, Cu, Ni, Pb, V, Zn)

TL;DR: The geochemical behavior of dissolved trace elements in sediment interstitial waters from the Vigo Ria (Galicia, Spain) has been determined as mentioned in this paper, showing that the metal profiles were affected by sedimentary redox processes, which were monitored by means of Mn and Fe concentrations and pore water pH.
