Journal ArticleDOI

Fifty-year sedimentary record of heavy metal pollution (Cd, Zn, Cu, Pb) in the Lot River reservoirs (France).

TL;DR: 137Cs activities and heavy metal concentration-depth profiles from sediment cores retrieved in 2001 from three reservoirs in the Lot River allow establishing a connection between the temporal evolution of the heavy metal pollution and historical changes in smelting and waste-treatment proceedings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term survey of heavy-metal pollution, biofilm contamination and diatom community structure in the Riou Mort watershed, South-West France.

TL;DR: In a metal-polluted stream in the Riou Mort watershed in SW France, periphytic diatom communities were affected by the metal but displayed induced tolerance, seen through structural impact (dominance of small, adnate species) as well as morphological abnormalities particularly in the genera Ulnaria and Fragilaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uptake of traffic-related heavy metals and platinum group elements (PGE) by plants

TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of the platinum group elements (PGE) caused by traffic emissions from auto-exhaust catalysts has been determined in soils and different types of plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Platinum-Group-Metals (PGM) emitted from automobile catalytic converters and their distribution in roadside soils

TL;DR: In this paper, a typical distribution of Pt, Rh and Pd in roadside soil is compared to the distribution of Pb and Zn, and the effect of a barrier on airborne transport of aerosols is demonstrated as well as the influence of prevailing wind direction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zn isotopes as tracers of anthropogenic pollution from Zn-ore smelters The Riou Mort–Lot River system

TL;DR: In this article, the extraction yields for these samples were calculated using presumable conservative elements (Fe, Ca, Mg, K, Na and Mn) and vary from 95.4% to 99.4%.
