Total 210Pb and 7Be fallout rates were measured on the coastal region of Niteroi, Brazil. The monthly depositional flux of 210Pb and 7Be varied by a factor of 26, from 1.7 to 43.3 mBq cm−2 year−1 and ∼27, from 7.5 to 203.5 mBq cm−2 year−1, respectively. The relatively large oscillations in the depositional flux of 210Pb at this study site were likely due to variations in air mass sources, while the 7Be fluctuations may be driven by a combination of weather conditions. Local geology could support the periodic high fluxes of 210Pb from continental air masses, as shifting oceanic wind sources were affirmed by the uncorrelated 210Pb and 7Be fallout activities and 7Be/210Pb ratios. The 210Pb atmospheric deposition was found to be in agreement with local sediment inventories, an important consideration in geochemical studies that estimate sedimentation processes. 相似文献

The Jacarepaguá lagoon receives the waste from 239 industries and domestic sewage. Bottom sediment analysis revealed that metal pollution is not spread over the lagoons but restricted to the discharge areas of the main metal-carrier rivers. Metal concentrations in superficial water showed the following concentrations values in ng/ml: Zn, 9.63+/-3.59; Pb, 0.61+/-0.43; Cu, 0.94+/-0.45; Mn, 12.7+/-8.0. Metal concentration in fish (average of seven different species) presented the following results, in mg/kg wet weight: Cr, 0.08+/-0.01; Cu, 0.4+/-0.15; Zn, 4.6+/-3.4; Fe, 2.4+/-1.3; Mn, 0.4+/-0.3. These results imply, considering fish consumption rate and the RfD (USEPA Reference Dose), that the local population is not exposed to undue health risks. Metal concentrations in the water may, however, increase due to their dissolution induced by pH and redox changes in the sediments. 相似文献

Concentrations of fertilizer industry-derived P (up to 3.4%), Ca (up to 6.1%), (226)Ra (up to 744 Bq kg(-1)) and (210)Pb (up to 1317 Bq kg(-1)) at least one order of magnitude above natural levels were recorded in a sediment core from Morr?o River estuary (SE Brazil). Unsupported (210)Pb (= total (210)Pb-(226)Ra) activities unexplained by atmospheric fallout and deviations from the radionuclides secular equilibrium also indicated strong anomalies. Anomalous constituents were positively correlated with each other and negatively correlated with clay mineral-bearing elements. These negative correlations were explained by a depletion of natural sediment constituents due to a dilution caused by elevated inputs of steel industry-derived elements (mainly by Fe levels up to 24%). Absolute data and normalizations by a proxy for clays (Al) and anthropogenic Fe evidenced variabilities in the quality of coastal and land-derived sediment inputs, mainly due to changes in the relative contributions from industrial sources. 相似文献
