摘要：
The 1989 reduction of lead in gasoline on the oceanic island of Bermuda is seen as an important. event from both an environmental quality and a geochemical perspective. Gasoline at 0.8 g Pb l-1 was the single most important source of lead on the island, and its removal has lead to a rapid decrease in airborne lead levels of > 90%. This suggests that significant reductions of lead in other environmental compartments, including nearshore waters and sediments, and also in human and other biological tissues, are to follow.
