Abstract The Niger Delta environment is under serious threat due to heavy metal pollution.
Many studies have been conducted on the heavy metal contamination in soils, water …

The research aimed to examine the risk to human health from heavy metal (Fe, Pb, Zn, Cd,
Cu and As) accumulation in the tissues of swimming crabs collected from three stations …

Anthropogenic activities along coastal areas have contributed to the unwarranted discharge
of toxic metals into mangrove swamps, posing risks to marine deposits and ecological …

This study investigated the temporal variations of water quality parameters and ecotoxic
trace metal contamination in the Opuroama River over a year, with a focus on providing …

The rise in illegal crude oil theft and refining in the southern Niger Delta region of Nigeria,
especially in Rivers State, has led to significant environmental damage to aquatic …

Concentrations of Pb, Cd, and As were investigated in the tissues of mudskippers
(Periophthalmus papilio), water, and sediments from Isaka-Bundu mangrove swamp in the …

Sediments can act as pollutant sinks and a source of pollution in aquatic environments. The
surface sediments of the Isaka–Bundu tidal swamp, Niger Delta was assessed for heavy …

This study was carried out to determine the amounts of heavy metals in Silver Catfish and
water samples collected from the Ogbogoro section of the new Calabar River in Nigeria …

Sediments can act as pollutant sink as well as source of secondary contamination in aquatic
ecosystems. The pollution characteristics of eight heavy metals in the sediments of Ikwu …

The study examined the distribution of physicochemical parameters and toxic metals in the
Niger Delta Coast, Nigeria. The shellfish (T. fuscatus), water, sediments, and …
