TLDR
Surface water samples were collected during missions in 1977, 1978, 1980 and 1983 at different sampling stations along the tidal Elbe, from river km 632 downstream from Hamburg to the outer end of the estuary to help define anthropogenic background levels.

Environmental cadmium in Europe.

TL;DR: The present article reviews information from the latest 10 years concerning fate and exposure of cadmium in the environment, on ecotoxicological effects, and on critical pathways leading to human and environmental exposure and emphasizes the situation within the Community of European Countries by referring to limit values used in the EEC and some of its member states for emissions to water, air and soil.

Trace metal chemistry of Galveston Bay: water, sediments and biota

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted an extensive investigation of Galveston Bay trace metals, in which their distribution in the water column, oysters and sediments were determined, and the results indicated that metal levels in open areas of the bay are currently similar to those in more pristine bays elsewhere.

Comments concerning the national Swedish contaminant monitoring programme in marine biota, 2016

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the national Swedish-contaminant monitoring program in marine biota, and make a series of comments concerning the Swedish-Contaminant Monitoring Program in marine Biota.

Resuspension, reactivity and recycling of trace metals in the Mersey Estuary, UK

TL;DR: In this paper, the concentration of dissolved and non-detrital (available to 1 M HCl) particulate Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn were determined in samples collected from the Mersey Estuary, UK, during four high-resolution axial transects.

New high-performance analytical procedure for the voltammetric determination of nickel in routine analysis of waters, biological materials and food

TL;DR: In this article, a new high-performance trace analytical procedure with voltammetric determination of Ni (and Co) is described, which simply consists in the application of dc or differential pulse voltammetry after prior interfacial accumulation by an adsorption layer of dimethylglyoximate at the HMDE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of contamination and other accuracy risks in voltammetric trace metal analysis of natural waters

TL;DR: In this paper, general and specific contamination factors affecting accuracy of results in heavy metal analysis at the trace level, with particular reference to the determination of Zn, Cd, Pb, Bi and Cu, are evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Applications of polarography and voltammetry to marine and aquatic chemistry

TL;DR: In this article, a method based on differential pulse anodic stripping at an in situ mercury film coated rotatable glassy carbon electrode for the simultaneous determination of ultra-trace levels of Cd, Pb and Cu dissolved in sea water and inland waters and accumulated in marine organisms is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Voltammetric trace analysis in ecological chemistry of toxic metals

TL;DR: In this paper, the importance of reliable prior stages (sampling and sample pretreatment) of the whole analytical procedure to obtain relevant data is emphasized and the significance of sampling and sample pre-treatment for reliable trace analysis for considered ecochemical subject general aspects of the voltammetric approach are treated.
