碩士 / 國立中山大學 / 海洋環境及工程學系研究所 / 99 / The main purpose of this research was to analyze the distribution and accumulation of metals in sediment cores of Gao-ping Canyon nearby areas. Enrichment factor (EF) and Sediment Quality Guidelines (SQGs) were also used to assess the pollution history, sources and extent of heavy metal pollution.
The results revealed that copper and cadmium metal concentrations have not been contaminated significantly; while zinc and lead concentrations reached moderate degree of pollution, which exceeded guidelines of Low-SLG in Ontario and ERL in NOAA. The concentration of lead was higher than most found in Taiwan. Although chromium was found mild polluted, but attention should still be paid as those concentrations exceeded the values of Low-SLG、Severe-SLG and ERL.
Comparing results from cores in Southern and Northern shelves of Gao-ping Canyon, the trend of heavy metal concentrations in Northern shelf rose gradually but had an apparent downward trend in surface mixed layer; while distinct variation with time was observed in Southern shelf.
