To evaluate the heavy metal contamination, ecological risk and possible sources at Saudi Yanbu coastline, 30 sediment samples were collected for Fe, Pb, Ni, As, Zn, Cu, Cr, Co, Al, Sb, Cd, and TOC analyses using ICP-MS. The potential ecological risk index (PERI), enrichment factor (EF), contamination factor (CF), potential contamination index (Cp),...

Heavy metals in coastal sediments and seagrass (Enhalus acoroides) were studied to assess the pollution level and to understand the bioaccumulation of metals on different organs. The mean of metal concentrations in sediments were in the following order: Cr > Ni > As>Zn > Cu > Co > Pb > Cd > Hg. The results of principal component analysis indicate t...
In coastal environments, oscillating redox conditions represent a functional state affecting organic matter mineralization. Such transient diagenetic processes remain difficult to study in situ, and we therefore designed a specific reactor to provide experimental results that are environmentally relevant in this context. Here, we present the result...

The geochemistry of phosphorus (P) can usually be related to prevailing environmental conditions. To investigate sedimentary P cycling mechanism and biogeochemical characteristics under high salinity and dredging conditions in polluted coastal sediments, thirty-three surface sediment samples were collected from the Jiehe River (JH), Jiaolai River (...

Heavy metals and radionuclides were investigated in the northern coastal zone of Ikaria Island. The collected sediment samples are sandy and they contain distinct heavy metal- and actinide-hosting minerals. All samples exhibit low U and Th content relative to granitic rocks of Aegean islands. The enrichment factor indicates an anthropogenic enrichm...
