The objective of the study was to investigate the distribution of the metallic elements Cu, Cr,
Ni, Pb and Zn in water column (surface and pore water) and also in the sediment structure (" …

The purpose of this study was to examine the levels of trace elements and to discuss the
origin and mobility of these contaminants in the canal sediments (alluvial formation of the …

Heavy metals are one of the most important factors among many others in biosphere
pollution. Mobility and toxicity of metals associated with bottom sediments are generally …

The aim of the study was to use of geochemical, chemical, ecotoxicological and biological
indicators for a comprehensive assessment of ecological risks related to the mobility …

Purpose The main objective of this study was to evaluate the concentrations and seasonal
variations of trace elements in surface sediments of three major rivers in Serbia—the …

Metals in sediments are present in different chemical forms which affect their ability to
transfer. The objective of this body of work was to compare different extraction methods for …

In the present investigation, bulk and chemical partitioning of elements in the Shefa-Rud
riverbed sediments are studies. Higher concentrations of elemental concentrations have …

Due to their toxicity, lack of bioaccumulation and biodegradability, and ease of binding to
sediments, heavy metals are considered the main pollutants of rivers. It is, therefore …

Factors that govern heavy metal concentration in sediments were examined by a combined
analytical, geochemical, and geological approach. The constrains encountered in the …
