Heavy metal pollution has become one of the most severe environmental issues. Adsorption
is an effective method for removing heavy metals from aquatic environments. The adsorption …

The Dispersal profile of the radioisotopes (226 Ra, 232 Th, 235 U, 40 K, 137 Cs) along with
potentially toxic elements (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, V, Zn, and Hg) in the sediments around the …

A focused diagnosis of ecosystem health in two South African estuaries (Kromme and
Gamtoos) was conducted. Four pollution indices were used, ie, geoaccumulation (Igeo) …

Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in seawater and sediments may be amplified along the
aquatic food chain, posing a health threat to humans. This study comprehensively analyzed …

The vertical distribution, level of contamination, potential ecological risks, and historical
fluxes of trace elements (Pb, As, and Hg) were evaluated from 210 Pb-dated sediment cores …

The article is devoted to the study of trace metals content in the Pechora River and its
tributaries, which is the largest river in the Arctic Ocean basin. The study of physico-chemical …

The evaluation of metal contamination, ecological risk, bioavailability, and the environmental
dredging depth in sediments of two Colombian riverine systems impacted by artisanal gold …

Most of the existing research for heavy metals in water at present is focusing on surface
water. However, potential environmental risk of heavy metals in the bottom water of lakes …

In recent decades, the rivers in Lake Chaohu Basin have been subjected to intensive
anthropogenic disturbance. However, previous studies have mainly focused on Lake …

Fifty-one surface sediment samples from Dongshan Bay, China, were analyzed for heavy
metals to evaluate their distribution, pollution status, and controlling factors. The enrichment …
