Ecological risks and controlling factors of trace elements in sediments of dam lakes in the Black Sea Region (Turkey)

TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed 14 trace elements (TEs) in sediments of four dam lakes (Erfelek, Derbent, Suat Uğurlu and Saraydüzü) in the Black Sea Region of Turkey.

Ecological risks and controlling factors of trace elements in sediments of dam lakes in the Black Sea Region (Turkey)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed 14 trace elements (TEs) in sediments of dam lakes and sediment properties (organic matter (OM) and pH) from four dam lakes (Erfelek, Derbent, Suat Ugurlu and Sarayduzu) in the Black Sea Region of Turkey, which are used for different purposes and located on different rivers or streams with different pollution levels.

Joanna Jaskuła, +1 more
- 01 Apr 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the contamination of six heavy metals (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb) in 42 river sediment samples was investigated in the Oder and Vistula, the two biggest rivers in Poland.

An ecological risk index for aquatic pollution control.a sedimentological approach

Lars Håkanson
- 01 Jan 1980 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a sedimentological risk index for toxic substances in limnic systems should at least, account for the following four requirements: the following: the quality of the sediment, the water quality, the sediment quality, and the sediment diversity.

The geochemical evolution of the continental crust

TL;DR: A survey of the dimensions and composition of the present continental crust is given in this paper, where it is concluded that at least 60% of the crust was emplaced by the late Archean (ca. 2.7 eons).

Field crops for phytoremediation of metal-contaminated land. A review

TL;DR: The phytoremediation efficiency of field crops is rarely high, but their greater growth potential compared with hyperaccumulators should be considered positively, in that they can establish a dense green canopy in polluted soil, improving the landscape and reducing the mobility of pollutants through water, wind erosion and water percolation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upper crustal abundances of trace elements: A revision and update

TL;DR: Rudnick et al. as mentioned in this paper reported new estimates of abundances of rarely analyzed elements (As, B, Be, Bi, Cd, Ge, In, Mo, Sb, Sn, Te, Tl, W) in the upper continental crust based on precise ICP-MS analyses of well-characterized upper crustal samples.

Comparison of pollution indices for the assessment of heavy metal in Brisbane River sediment

TL;DR: The results demonstrate the need for further investigation into heavy metal speciation and bioavailability in the sediment to ascertain the degree of toxicity and suggest a modified ecological risk index (MRI) employing enrichment factor is proposed.
