Does salt water intrusion constitute a mercury contamination risk for coastal fresh water aquifers?

Four different sampling surveys were carried out in 1998 to evaluate the possible causes of severe mercury contamination involving many wells spread over a vast territory along the coast of southern Tuscany (Italy). Several samples of groundwater and coastal sea water were collected to determine the Hg, Cl, Ar, He and N contents. Anthropogenic or deep-seated sources of the Hg involved in the contamination event can be excluded. The observed coupling of Hg pollution with progressive salt water intrusion along the coastal aquifer indicates a close causal relation between these two phenomena.

Sediment distribution on the continental shelf in relation to stream inputs and contamination: hydrodynamic,chemical, mineralogical,and sedimentological characteristics (Ligurian Sea,Italy)

River estuaries, continental shelf, and sediment contamination are closely linked from the point of view of sediment transport and diffusion that is governed by different factors such as sea waves and currents, river flows and floods, and sediment characteristics. Taking these factors into consideration, we have examined marine environmental and marine bottom sediments off the mouth of a stream to highlight the main ways of sediment and contaminant transport and diffusion on the continental shelf. For this purpose, we followed a multidisciplinary approach, studying circulation of water masses, hydrological characteristics of water column, distribution and main characteristics of sediment grain size, sediment mineralogical composition, and metal concentrations of bottom sediments. Our results allowed identifying the presence of preferential ways of sediment deposition and areas of sediment spread for the Entella Stream, as well as the origin of some metals.

     

Tributyltin contamination around an oil terminal in Sullom Voe (Shetland)

This report provides clear evidence of tributyltin (TBT) contamination of coastal waters close to an oil terminal handling large tankers. Dogwhelk populations from Sullom Voe, Shetland, have been examined for the development by females of certain male sexual characteristics (e.g. a penis and vas deferens). This condition, termed imposex, is a response to exposure to tributylin compounds, and can be quantified by use of the relative penis size index (RPSI). Dogwhelk populations throughout Sullom Voe were strongly affected by TBT (RPSI 34 to 81%), and up to 90% of the females in the oil terminal area were sterile. Queen scallops collected in the Voe contained enhanced concentrations of tin in adductor muscle and gonad tissue (0.02 to 0.23 mg kg(-1) wet weight), but it is considered unlikely that their growth and development is adversely affected. Tin was rarely detected in scallops, queens, or dogwhelks outside the Voe, although the development of a vas deferens in many of the female dogwhelks indicated a degree of contamination of the open waters of Yell Sound. TBT was detectable (2 ng litre(-1) as tin) in only two sea water samples taken from the terminal area.     

Sediment-associated aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons in coastal British Columbia, Canada: concentrations, composition, and associated risks to protected sea otters

Sediment-associated hydrocarbons can pose a risk to wildlife that rely on benthic marine food webs. We measured hydrocarbons in sediments from the habitat of protected sea otters in coastal British Columbia, Canada. Alkane concentrations were dominated by higher odd-chain n-alkanes at all sites, indicating terrestrial plant inputs. While remote sites were dominated by petrogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), small harbour sites within sea otter habitat and sites from an urban reference area reflected weathered petroleum and biomass and fossil fuel combustion. The partitioning of hydrocarbons between sediments and adjacent food webs provides an important exposure route for sea otters, as they consume ∼25% of their body weight per day in benthic invertebrates. Thus, exceedences of PAH sediment quality guidelines designed to protect aquatic biota at 20% of the sites in sea otter habitat suggest that sea otters are vulnerable to hydrocarbon contamination even in the absence of catastrophic oil spills.     

Investigation of environmental contamination of mono-isopropylnaphthalene, di-isopropylnaphthalene and tri-isopropylnaphthalene in Hyogo in Japan

Di-isopropylnaphthalene (DIPN) has highly persistent and bioaccumulative properties, and a large amount of DIPN is used as a PCB substitute in Japan. However, DIPN in the environment has not been thoroughly investigated. In addition, mono-isopropylnaphthalene (MIPN) and tri-isopropylnaphthalene (TIPN), which are the homologues of DIPN, have similar properties to DIPN. In this study, simultaneous analytical methods for MIPN, DIPN, and TIPN for air, environmental water, sediment, and biological samples were developed, and the resultant contamination caused by each in the environment was investigated. DIPN was detected at 1.1?±?0.38?ng/m³ in air and between <?1.9 and 9.8?ng/L in river water, but MIPN and TIPN were not. In Lateolabrax japonicas (Japanese sea perch), TIPN was detected from only females at between 0.65 and 1.4?ng/g-wet. DIPN was detected from all perches at between 1.2 and 3.4?ng/g-wet. DIPN and TIPN isomer fingerprints in females were different from those in the reference standard stock solution ones. In sediments, MIPN, DIPN, and TIPN were detected at between <?0.16 and 8.6?ng/g-dry, between <?1.1 and 4400?ng/g-dry, and between <?0.83 and 500?ng/g-dry, respectively. The contamination trend of DIPN in the sediments was similar to that of PCBs.     

PCB and DDT contamination in cultivated and wild sea bass from Ria de Aveiro, Portugal

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and metabolites were quantified in muscle and liver of sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) collected in Ria de Aveiro and in two fish farms. Sea bass from natural environment showed lower levels than fish from farming, which may be partly attributed to the higher lipid content of cultivated fish. PCB congener distribution in tissues of sea bass from the two farms resembled that of diet pellets suggesting that commercial diet is a major source of PCBs. However, fish in the two sites were fed with diet of similar PCB and DDT contamination but showed distinct levels in its tissues not explained by lipid content.

Contamination status of arsenic and other trace elements in drinking water and residents from Tarkwa, a historic mining township in Ghana

This study was conducted to assess the contamination status of 22 trace elements, especially As in water and residents in Tarkwa, a historic mining town in Ghana. Drinking water and human urine samples were collected from Tarkwa in addition to control samples taken from Accra, the capital of Ghana in March, 2004. Concentrations of As and Mn in some drinking water samples from Tarkwa were found above the WHO drinking water guidelines posing a potential health risk for the people. A potential health risk of As and Mn is a concern for the people consuming the contaminated water in this area. No significant difference of As concentrations in human urine between mining town (Tarkwa) and control site (Accra) was observed. Although As concentrations in drinking water in Tarkwa were low, urinary As levels were comparable to those reported in highly As-affected areas in the world. These results suggest the presence of other sources of As contamination in Ghana. This is the first study on multi-elemental contamination in drinking water and human from a mining town in Ghana.     

Mobility of heavy metals from tailings to stream waters in a mining activity contaminated site

In this paper the results of a recent characterization of Rio Piscinas (SW of Sardinia, Italy) hydrological basin are reported. In such area (about 50 km2), previous mining activities caused a serious heavy metal contamination of surface waters, groundwater, soils and biota. Acid mine drainage phenomena were observed in the area. The main sources of contamination are the tailings stored in mine tunnels and abandoned along fluvial banks. A methodological approach was adopted in order to identify relations between tailings and water contamination. Representative samples of tailings and stream sediments samples were collected. XRD analyses were performed for mineralogical characterization, while acid digestion was carried out for determining metal contents. Batch sequential leaching tests were performed in order to assess metal mobility. Also groundwater and stream water were sampled in specific locations and suitably characterized. All information collected allowed the understanding of the effect of tailings on water contamination, thus contributing to the qualitative prediction of pollution evolution on the basis of metal mobility. Finally, a potential remediation strategy of stream water is proposed.
