Thesestudies made it possible to determine the area influenced by the Grijalva-Usumacinta Riverthrough granulomehic (mud load) and chemical (aluminum concentration) parameters.The load sediment of the riven moves in a northerly direction. The concentration anddistribution pattem were studied in the sediments of four anthropogenically induced heavymetals: cadmium, chromium, barium and lead. Cadmium was not detected and lead valueswere low (18 pprn). Chromium levels were between 66 and 366 pprn and its distributionpattem suggests that this metal is transported by the rivers to the shelf area. The levels ofbarium concentration were between 33 and 767 pprn and its distribution pattern suggestsan anthropogenic source &ated to the extraction industry of hydrocarbons. 1994 artículo científico 0188-4999 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=37010101 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=370 Revista Internacional de Contaminación Ambiental application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Internacional de Contaminación Ambiental (México) Num.1 Vol.10 |
