The objective of this research was to assess sediments contamination, provenance and metal pollution using single complex indicators. Limbe River sediment samples were analysed Inductively Coupled Plasma—Mass Spectrometry. exhibit high content in Fe2O3 sourced from haematization basaltic rocks. concentration Cd, Co, Cr, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sn, Sr, V Zn exceed upper continental crust local baseline values for heavy metals. Correlation matrix analysis indicates the presence common input sources similar geochemical characteristics Contamination factor (CF: 0.01–10.34), contamination degree (Cdeg: 14.91–36.57), load index (PLI: 0.84–1.77), nemerow integrated (NIPI: 0.2–1.7) significant levels contamination. enrichment (EF: 0–5.67) geo-accumulation (Igeo: -7.55–2.59), suggests moderate ecosystem, suggesting potential ecological effects. Modified hazard quotient (mHQ: 0.082–6.35) toxic risk (TRI: 10.49–27.43), low extreme severity toxicity risks metals aquatic ecosystem fauna flora. Primarily anthropogenic activities secondary lithogenic is attributed pollution. This study that a greater emphasis should be placed on monitoring various provenances entering practices. emphasizes significance continual protection biological resources adaptive management. development reasonable goals remedial programmes can aided by data.

The coastal region of Bangladesh is significantly influenced by soil and water salinity, which further exacerbated the increasing frequency tropical cyclones rising sea levels. Understanding extent salinity its challenges crucial for promoting sustainable agriculture ensuring access to safe drinking water. Using quantitative (soil parameters) qualitative (focus group discussion key informant interview) data, we investigated (i) nutrient contents; (ii) adaptive practices in management three sub-districts (Assasuni, Dacope Morrelganj) southwestern Bangladesh. Results show that levels did not differ among sub-districts, with Assasuni having slightly higher (8.24 dS m-1) compared (8.08 Morrelganj (7.96 m-1). Significant differences were observed level pond canal highest both (13.98 (77.85 m-1), other sub-districts. Soil major reported respondents; however, climate-induced stresses (e.g., untimely precipitation) outbreaks pests during droughts have been identified as prominent issues agriculture. Rainwater harvesting has a viable technique management, offering feasible solution address salinity. study underscores importance implementing rainwater harvesting) scarcity promote resilient agricultural systems.

Arsenic (As),iron (Fe), and manganese (Mn) pollution in the coastal areas of Bangladesh are severe problems.Irrigation by shallow wells agricultural lands is primary source these metals. Being a part Ganges, Brahmaputra, Meghna (GBM) Delta, accreted land River estuary has experienced series erosion accretion phenomena deposited vast amount sediments along with potentially toxic elements. This study investigated spatial distribution, source, fate, potential environmental human health risks As, Fe, Mn from 25 sites across lower estuary, Bay Bengal. The mean concentration surface soil samples ranged 0.1-5.16, 12,000-23,810, 50.6-1025.12 mg/kg, respectively, where high concentrations metals were found southern belt estuary. A As (> 2 mg/kg) was observed at stations 3-4, 15, 17. Igeo values estimated as -1.05, -0.50, -0.55, respectively. analyzed below zero for all metals, suggesting no contamination load index (PLI) than level, indicating that levels remain harmful thresholds but require regular monitoring. Potential ecological risk (PERI) (1.32-10.75) showed low studied area. Moreover, "no risk" to "low level" carcinogenic identified. According threshold values, except (stations 17), most can be considered adequately safe food production. suggests plant analyses incorporated into future research; however, it would more impactful emphasize bioavailability studies their relevance safety.
