Trace elements in the Prestige fuel-oil spill: Levels and influence on Laxe Ria sediments (NW Iberian Peninsula)
Trace elements have been determined in sediments from the Laxe Ria (NW Iberian Peninsula) one year before and one year after the Prestige fuel-oil spill (November 2002; 42º11′N, 12º02′ W). The elements analyzed (Cd, Cu, Mo, Ni, Se and V) were chosen because they appeared to represent a potential con...

The elements analyzed (Cd, Cu, Mo, Ni, Se and V) were chosen because they appeared to represent a potential contaminant from the deposited oil in the sediments. Enrichment factors, based on Al-normalized background concentrations, did not indicate metal contamination in the sediments from most of the ría; however, a severe contamination by Cu, Mo, Ni and V was found in the area of Corme Inlet, where the fuel oil could have accumulated as a result of the ria|00E2|??s hydrodynamic pattern . Se cuantificó la concentración de 19 elementos químicos en el combustible pesado derramado al mar desde los tanques del petrolero Prestige (noviembre de 2002; 42º11′N, 12º02′ W). Entre ellos, se investigó la presencia de Cd, Cu, Mo, Ni, Se y V en el sedimento superficial de la Ría de Laxe (NO de España) en los años anterior y posterior al vertido debido a que sus niveles son similares tanto en el fuel como en el sedimento. Los factores de enriquecimiento, obtenidos tras normalización de las concentraciones con el aluminio, no indican contaminación del sedimento en la ría. No obstante, se detectó una severa contaminación por Cu, Mo, Ni y V en la ensenada de Corme donde el vertido podría haberse acumulado como resultado de la hidrodinámica de la propia ría. 2006-05-24 2021-06-03T03:55:08Z 2021-06-03T03:55:08Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer-reviewed research note Nota de investigación arbitrada https://www.cienciasmarinas.com.mx/index.php/cmarinas/article/view/1028 10.7773/cm.v32i12.1028 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/7386 eng https://www.cienciasmarinas.com.mx/index.php/cmarinas/article/view/1028/931 application/pdf Iniversidad Autónoma de Baja California Ciencias Marinas; Vol. 32 No. 1B (2006); 179-186 Ciencias Marinas; Vol. 32 Núm. 1B (2006); 179-186 2395-9053 0185-3880 |
