英文摘要 | This study identifies the impact of river sediments on coastal ecosystems in the southwestern coastal region of Korea. Surface sediments were analyzed for their spatial distributions of organic matter, nutrients, and heavy metal concentrations. Furthermore, pollutants were identified according to the pollution load index (PLI) and potential ecological risk index (RI). Concentrations did not show serious pollution levels compared to generalized guidelines; however, some sites exceeded the PLI pollution standard, and were also identified as potential ecological risks. Through cluster analyses the sediment sites were classified into three groups: rivers with relatively high concentrations of organic matter and nutrients, rivers affected largely by artificial heavy metal pollution, and rivers with low levels of pollution by organic matter, nutrients, and heavy metals. It is evident that continuous monitoring and management are required to prevent major pollution from industrial complexes, agriculture, and commercial activities in the regions near these rivers. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd |
