摘要
The concentration of heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr, Co, and Ni) from 421 sediment samples from the shelf of the northern margin of the South China Sea (SNSCS) was analyzed. The heavy metal content and calculated potential ecological indicators (Eri < 40 and RI < 160) indicate that there is low potential ecological risk of heavy metal pollution in the SNSCS. The mean effects range-median quotient (M-ERM-Q) and hazard quotient (HQ) values of sediment toxicological characteristics indicate that heavy metals are a potential toxicological risk. The high-risk area is mainly distributed in the southwest of the nearshore SNSCS. The positive matrix factorization (PMF) analysis results showed that major contributors to heavy metal pollution were natural sources and anthropogenic activities in the SNSCS. The government should pay particular attention to the monitoring of heavy metals in the nearshore southwest of the SNSCS.
