Trace metal accumulation in different grain size fractions of the sediments from a semi-enclosed bay heavily contaminated by urban and industrial wastewaters

Trace metal accumulation in different grain size fractions of the sediments from a semi-enclosed bay heavily contaminated by urban and industrial wastewaters

Cluster analysis was applied to identify granulometric similarities between sediment samples from a heavily contaminated semi-enclosed bay (the Kaštela Bay in the Middle Adriatic). Concentrations of Mn, Cr, Pb, Cd and organic matter were determined in four grain-size fractions (A, >300  μm; B, 54...

Zusammenfassung:Cluster analysis was applied to identify granulometric similarities between sediment samples from a heavily contaminated semi-enclosed bay (the Kaštela Bay in the Middle Adriatic).
