Heavy Metal Contamination in the Surface Sediments of Representative Limnetic Ecosystems in Eastern China

TL;DR: The results indicate that heavy metal contamination, especially Cd, should be taken into account during development of management strategies to protect the aquatic environment in the limnetic ecosystems of eastern China, especially in the two aforementioned basins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heavy metal contamination of overlying waters and bed sediments of Haihe Basin in China.

TL;DR: Examination of heavy metals in overlying waters and surface sediments in rivers of the Haihe Basin indicates that heavy metal contamination in the rivers of this basin should be considered when developing basin management strategies for protecting the aquatic environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Concentrations, diffusive fluxes and toxicity of heavy metals in pore water of the Fuyang River, Haihe Basin.

TL;DR: The results showed that the average concentrations of Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Zn, and Pb in pore water were 17.06%, and there was a potential risk of toxicity from Cu to aquatic organisms, as indicated by a value of the Interstitial Water Criteria Toxic Units that exceeded 1.0.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial distribution, fractionation, toxicity and risk assessment of surface sediments from the Baiyangdian Lake in northern China

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper evaluated the risk posed by trace metals, as well as their bioavailability and toxicity in Baiyangdian Lake (BYDL) and found that heavy metals have a coercive effect on the distribution of benthic invertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution Characteristics of Surface Water Quality Due to Climate Change and LUCC under Scenario Simulations: A Case Study in the Luanhe River Basin

TL;DR: The Luanhe River Basin in north-eastern China was examined for qualitatively and quantitatively assessing the responses of total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) loads on different climate scenarios and LUCC scenarios, and the results show that from 1963 to 2017, the TN and TP loads basically presented a negative correlation with the temperature change (except for winter), while showing a significant positive correlate with the precipitation change.
