摘要
An investigation was conducted on 21st April 2012 in Southampton Water sediment, with the aim of detecting the contaminants distribution and the influence on the living organisms. Among the sampling sites, station 3 and 4 are most close to Fawley oil refinery, where contaminants with respect to trace metals, Cu and Zn, and oil are observed with highest concentrations. Metals contained in the sediments are in forms of weakly bounded compounds, such as carbonates and oxides, or strongly bounded complex, including organic metals and sulphide. High values of organic matter concentration in sediment at station 3 agree with the oil release from Fawley. Chlorophyll a concentrations are lowest at station 4, corresponding to the high pollution around.
