The hazardous substances listed in the EU Water Framework Directive (Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a framework for the Community action in the field of water policy) as priority and priority hazardous substances, HELCOM substances of specific concern to the Baltic Sea and some other pollutants which our team deemed potentially problematic for the Baltic...
The contents and characteristics of ten heavy metals in surface sediments from Yangzonghai Lake in Yunnan, China were analyzed. Ecological risk index presented by Håkanson to assess the potential ecological risk of Yangzonghai Lake was utilized. The results showed that the average concentrations of titanium(Ti), manganese(Mn), zinc(Zn), vanadium(V), chromium(Cr), copper(Cu), nickel(Ni), cobalt(Co),...
Based on the investigating the inter-tidal water environment in Qinhuangdao section, the distribution characteristics of ammonia nitrogen, chemical oxygen demand, Zn, Cd and other metal elements in the water body and the pollution characteristics of Cu, Pb, Zn and Cd in surface sediment were studied. The results showed that Cd, chemical oxygen demand and ammonia nitrogen are the main pollutants in...
With the Tessier Five-step Continuous Extracting Method, the thesis studied the form distribution of heavy metals in the sediment samples collected from Mochou Lake, Xuanwu Lake and Qinhuai River in Nanjing, analyzed the correlation between leaching contents of heavy metals and various forms and between content of organic matter and leachability of heavy metals and between organic matter and organic...
The water system of Fen River in Shanxi province has upstream, midstream and downstream three sections, which are separately located in Jingyou, Jiexiu, Xiaodian, Hongtong, Linfen and Hejin, six sampling points are disposed there for the sake of collecting the samples of the filtered water and suspended matter, and measuring heavy metal contents. The measurement results show that heavy metal exist...
Twelve samples of surface sediment in Nanhu Lake, Wuhan city were collected and the concentrations of Organic Matter (OM), Total Nitrogen (TN), Total Phosphorus (TP), ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N) and nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N) were determined; the average result were 6.58%, 3972, 1712, 897 and 20mg/kg separately. Cd, Hg, As, Cu, Pb, Cr and Zn were determined too; and the average value were 0.46, 0.140,...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the spatial distribution, pollution extent and sources of heavy metal in Nansi Lake. Twenty six surface sediments were selected for determination of the total metal content. High concentrations of heavy metals including Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cr, Fe and Mn, ranged from 3.15 to 230000 mg/kg-dry weight (dw). Clustering analysis was used to classify the monitoring...
Yundang Lake is an important area for living and traveling in Xiamen Island. Severe pollution and sedimentation have been found in the lake, and then the dredging is needed. In order to assess the pollution level of dredged material, sediments from 6 stations in the Yundang Lake were sampled for heavy metal contamination, speciation analysis, and adsorption-desorption experiment in April 2003. Heavy...
Taking the main pollution source of sewage river in north China as study object, concentrations of ammonia, chemical oxygen demand and heavy metals in sources of pollution and nearby water are determined. The two dimension steady river water quality models of ammonia and chemical oxygen demand are established, and the geometric characteristics of pollutant zone at downstream of the pollution source...
The remains of zooplankton subfossil and sediment characteristics were examined from a macrophyte dominated shallow lake Wuliangsuhai in Inner Mongolia, China, in order to study past limnological changes. The lake began to switch to eutrophication gradually in the middle 1980s, creating a Transitional Sediment Layer (TSL, about 17 cm depth) that can be visually used to separate sediments derived from...
The extensive clayization of Dexing copper mine is responsible for water and soil pollutions because of the oxidation of sulfide minerals. During the clayization, harmful elements such as As, S, Sb and Pb could be effectively released into the clay and water. Using the abundant spectral information of short wave infrared (SWIR), combining with the spectral absorbed index, SAM (Spectrum Angle Mapper)...
