Redalyc · Ciencias Marinas
The accumulation of heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn) in surface sediments (<63 µm) of the Ferrol and Corme-Laxe rias was studied. These two rias have opposite characteristics from the point of view of both the morphology and the anthropogenic impact. Low metal concentrations were found in the Cor...

| description | The accumulation of heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn) in surface sediments (<63 µm) of the Ferrol and Corme-Laxe rias was studied. These two rias have opposite characteristics from the point of view of both the morphology and the anthropogenic impact. Low metal concentrations were found in the Corme-Laxe Ria, with the highest values observed in the Anllóns River estuary, probably due to a higher lithogenic composition of the sediments. Concentrations in the Corme-Laxe Ria (Cd, 0.10 ± 0.03 µg g–1; Cu, 5 ± 2 µg g–1; Pb, 12 ± 4 µg g–1; and Zn, 49 ± 17 µg g–1) can be used as a good reference for metal background values for sediments from the 18 Galician rias. Although these background values are lower than those previously reported for the Galician coast, they are similar to those found in other uncontaminated coastal and marine systems. The highest concentrations for Ferrol were generally found in the middle part of the ria, which receives the most important urban and industrial impact. The values obtained show evident metal contamination in the middle and inner parts of the Ferrol Ria, with enrichment factors of 4–10 for Cd, 5 for Cu, 2–3 for Pb and 4–5 for Zn.
Se estudió la acumulación de metales pesados (Cd, Cu, Pb y Zn) en el sedimento (<63 µm) superficial en las rías de Ferrol y Corme-Laxe, las cuales poseen características contrapuestas tanto desde el punto de vista de su morfología como de su influencia urbana e industrial. La ría de Corme-Laxe presentó bajos niveles de metales en los sedimentos, siendo mayores en el estuario del Río Anllóns probablemente debido a un mayor grado litogénico de los sedimentos. Las concentraciones obtenidas en la ría de Laxe (0.10 ± 0.03 µg g–1 de Cd, 5 ± 2 µg g–1 de Cu, 12 ± 4 µg g–1 de Pb y 49 ± 17 µg g–1 de Zn) resultan una buena referencia de valores naturales de fondo para metales en las 18 rías gallegas. Aunque éstos son menores a otros considerados para la costa gallega, son similares a los medidos a nivel mundial en sedimentos marinos no contaminados. En Ferrol, las máximas concentraciones de metales se presentan generalmente en la parte media de la ría, donde se localiza el mayor núcleo de población y buena parte de la actividad industrial. Los datos allí obtenidos señalan la existencia de una evidente contaminación metálica en la parte media e interna de la ría de Ferrol con factores de enriquecimiento comprendidos entre 4–10 para Cd, 5 para Cu, 2–3 para Pb y 4–5 para Zn. |
