摘要
To study the impact of rapid industrialization and urbanization in Guangxi Province on the coastal environment in recent years, seven metals (Hg, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr, Zn and As) were investigated in the surface seawater and sediments of the northern Beibu Gulf. The levels of the metals were lower than in other regions in China, but Hg, Cu and Cd showed a significant increasing trend in both seawater and sediments over the past 20 years. Higher levels were consistently observed in the nearshore area, particularly in the northwest, which may be related to the rapid industrial development in coastal areas. Correlation and principal component analyses suggested that both terrestrial inputs and biological processes influenced the distribution of metals. In addition, the higher risk observed for Hg and Cu may be largely influenced by the increasing trend in these metals in the Beibu Gulf.
