Abstract 'Background'is the concentration of metals in pristine sediment, unaltered by human
activity and 'enrichment'is the extent present-day sediment metal concentrations exceed pre …

The current critical review examines the application of 11 frequently used sedimentary metal
indices in their ability to accurately assess the magnitude of human-induced change …

In November 2015, the largest socio-environmental disaster in the history of Brazil occurred
when approximately 50 million m 3 of mine tailings were released into the Doce River (SE …

Sediment samples, including 40 surface samples and 12 sediment cores, were collected
from 52 stations of the Yangtze River Estuary (YRE) in 2015 and 2016. The 95% linear …

The concentration and speciation of heavy metals (Cu, Co, Ni, Zn, Cr, Pb and Cd) were
studied in surface sediment from the Yangtze River (YR) to the East China Sea (ECS) shelf …

A new sequential extraction scheme for acid sulfate soil materials has been evaluated for
iron partitioning in a range of synthetic iron-bearing minerals and natural acid sulfate soil …

Three approaches were applied to evaluate metal contamination in 41 sediment samples
from the Santos-São Vicente Estuarine System: normalization to Al, statistical analysis and …

To understand the impacts of the human-induced flood event on heavy metal (HM) transport,
spatiotemporal variations in contents and fluxes of metals (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Pb, Cd), Pb …

Variations in particulate and dissolved heavy metal (Cu, Co, Ni, Zn, Pb, Cr, Cd and As)
concentrations and fluxes as well as their response to the Water-Sediment Regulation …

Metals in urban park soil are closely related to traffic emissions, which adversely affect soil
quality and human health. However, little is known about the quantitative impacts of traffic on …
