The main goal of this study is to determine the present heavy metal pollution state in the two gulfs of the Aegean Sea; Saros and Gökova Gulfs. The surface sediments were collected from 11 and eight locations in the Saros and Gökova during May 2001, respectively. The results showed that the sediments of Saros and Gökova gulfs were polluted with Pb, Cr, Zn, Mn, and Ni and Pb, Cr, Ni, and Mn, respectively. For various metals the contamination factor (CF) has been calculated to assess the degree of pollution in sediments. The sediments were noted to be not contaminated with Hg, Cd, and Cu in all areas. Moderate contaminations were observed for Pb, Cr, and Zn in Saros Gulf. The CF was moderate and very high for Ni in the Saros and the Gökova Gulf, respectively.
本研究的主要目的是确定爱琴海的两个海湾(萨罗尼克湾和格克托伊湾)目前的重金属污染状况。于 2001 年 5 月分别在萨罗尼克湾和格克托伊湾的 11 个和 8 个地点采集了表层沉积物。结果表明,萨罗尼克湾和格克托伊湾的沉积物受到 Pb、Cr、Zn、Mn 和 Ni 的污染,而 Pb、Cr、Ni 和 Mn 则分别受到 Pb、Cr、Ni 和 Mn 的污染。为了评估沉积物的污染程度,计算了各种金属的污染因子(CF)。在所有地区,Hg、Cd 和 Cu 都没有污染沉积物。在萨罗尼克湾,Pb、Cr 和 Zn 存在中等污染。在萨罗尼克湾和格克托伊湾,Ni 的 CF 分别为中度和高度。
