Mangrove forests prevalent along the intertidal regions of tropical and sub-tropical
coastlines are inimitable and dynamic ecosystems. They protect and stabilize coastal areas …

This review is the first attempt to comprehend the changes in metal contamination levels in
surface estuarine sediments with changing time around India. Contamination factor …

Drinking water containing heavy metals above the maximum permissible limits cause
potential risk to human health. The aim of this study was to determine the groundwater …

The paper presents the results of a study of heavy metals (HMs) concentrations in six
retention reservoirs located in the lowland area of western Poland. The objectives of this …

Road-deposited sediment and its adsorbed pollutants have been regarded as significant
sources of urban diffuse pollution. In this study, the solid-phase concentrations (mg/g) …

Six trace metals (chromium [Cr], nickel [Ni], copper [Cu], arsenic [As], cadmium [Cd] and lead
[Pb]) were measured in sediments and soft tissues of three commonly consumed fish …

Metal pollution in benthic sediments was fractionated and modelled to quantify the risk of
anthropogenic activities on river ecosystems. In this study, the individual contamination …

The sediments of Ganga estuary, Hooghly River in India, were assayed for the effect of
monsoon season on heavy metal loads over 2014–2017, a time frame never investigated …

Surface sediments were collected from Vellar and Coleroon estuaries for determine
sediment texture, calcium carbonate, organic matter and heavy metals. Pollution indices …

This study investigates the build-up dynamics of heavy metals on impervious urban surfaces
with different antecedent dry-weather periods (ADPs) and land-use types. Solid-phase …
