A survey on the Partially Extracted Trace Metals (PETMs) concentration (Fe, Mn, Cr, Cu, Ni, Co, Pb, Zn, Cd) in beach sediments is reported for the first time from 57 different locations in Chennai Metropolitan City of Southeast coast of India. The concentration of PETMs suggests that they are mainly concentrated with organic matter in the crowded part of the industrial regions in the beaches from the northern part rather than the tourist beaches in the southern part of the city. The comparison on enrichment of trace metals indicates higher values of Pb, Ni in the beaches than lowest effect level (LEL) and effects range low (ERL) than the tourist beaches.
首次对印度东南海岸钦奈大都市区 57 个不同地点的海滩沉积物中部分提取痕量金属(Fe、Mn、Cr、Cu、Ni、Co、Pb、Zn、Cd)的浓度进行了调查。痕量金属的浓度表明,它们主要与工业区域的有机物集中在一起,而不是城市南部的旅游海滩。痕量金属富集的比较表明,海滩上的 Pb 和 Ni 含量高于最低效应水平 (LEL) 和效应范围低值 (ERL),高于旅游海滩。
