The paper presents the first document regarding concentration, distribution and possible
sources of selected trace elements (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cr, Co, Ni, Pb, Al, B and Ba) in core …

Abstract Concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni and Fe were determined in the surface
sediments to investigate the distributions, concentrations and the pollution status of heavy …

The lower tidal stretch of the river Ganges, known as Hugli (ca. 280km), flows southward
before entering the Bay of Bengal forming a vast mangrove-enriched estuarine delta called …

Trace element concentrations in sediment were investigated at four fish farms in the Eastern
Mediterranean Sea. Fish farms effects were negligible beyond 25–50m from the edge of the …

Four sediment cores were collected from selected locations of Sundarbans mangroves and
Hooghly estuary, northeast coast of India to establish 210 Pb geochronology and trace metal …

Heavy metal (HM) pollution in aquatic ecosystems has an adverse effect on both aquatic life
forms as well as terrestrial living beings, including humans. Since HMs are recalcitrant, they …

This study describes the geochemical distribution of lead (Pb) and identifies the critical
factors that significantly control Pb distribution and speciation in coastal and estuarine …

The countrywide COVID-19 pandemic lockdown accomplished what aggressive plans could
not do throughout the long-term cleaning of the Ganga River. Here, we illustrated Hooghly …

Abstract The Hooghly River (HR) estuary is the first deltaic off-shoot of the perennial and
transboundary river, Ganga, India. HR receives industrial and domestic waste along with …

Spatial distribution of potentially toxic metals (PTMs) and their accumulation in mangrove
Avicennia officinalis L. were studied along 8 locations in and around Sundarban mangrove …
