Using the Heavy Metal and Biotic Indices to Assess Ecological Quality in the Central Area of the East Sea, South Korea

Water, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(9), P. 1230 - 1230

Published: April 25, 2024

With the rapid development of South Korean economy, human activities have extensively affected Korea’s coastal environment. A precise ecological quality assessment remains paramount despite relatively lower impact on East Sea compared to West and Seas Korea. Accurate assessments can provide valuable marine environmental protection management references. In our study, we employed seven indices based heavy metals macrobenthos comprehensively assess quality. Our results indicated final in central Korea was acceptable at most stations; however, winter marginally falls short that spring. The concentration emerges as a significant determinant quality, underscoring need for subsequent studies investigate origins influence anthropogenic metal concentrations. Furthermore, employing single biotic index proves challenging accurately assessing

Environmental Implications of the Soil-to-Groundwater Migration of Heavy Metals in Mining Area Hotspots

Metals, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(6), P. 719 - 719

Published: June 17, 2024

Groundwater contamination was studied at several hotspot sites in the Majdanpek copper mining area (Serbia). These include a milling facility, metallurgical wastewater treatment plant, heavy vehicle service area, and waste disposal site. In addition to Cu, high concentrations of As metals (Cd Pb) were detected groundwater soil same sampling points. Mining operations transport activities have been identified as main sources pollution. The migration from groundwater, expressed concentration ratio, highest for Co lowest Mn. environmental implications pollution using metal index (HPI), Nemerov (NPI), hazard (HI), incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR).

This research looks at how the growth of cities and industries affects levels heavy metals in soil, which can impact people's health. We find out where pollution comes from, such as factories, car fumes, improper waste disposal, by reviewing existing studies. use different methods to test soil for study exposure these urban areas The evidence shows a connection between high city health problems like breathing issues, brain disorders, overall toxicity body. also explore get into human body, highlighting importance understanding they are available ways people exposed. To deal with polluted soils, we look manage suggest sustainable reduce metal pollution. Our discoveries add what know about environmental health, emphasizing need actions protect residents. Ultimately, this aims give important information insights policymakers, planners, public officials managing lessening risks linked contamination soils.
