| Özet |
| In the present study, the concentrations of aluminium, arsenic, copper, zinc, mercury, iron, cadmium and lead have been measured in sediment and in dwarf eelgrass Zostera noltii, collected from Sinop coast of the Black Sea, Turkey in 2013. Concentrations of Al, As, Cu, Zn, Pb and Fe were generally higher in sediment than those in dwarf eelgrass. Cd concentrations, however, were higher in the dwarf eelgrass samples. Hg was below the limit of detection (< 0.05 mg/kg dry wt) in dwarf eelgrass, and it was detected mean 0.02 mg/kg dry wt. in sediment. Cd had the highest CF mean and As showed the lowest CF value. It may be concluded that dwarf eelgrass is able to accumulate the heavy metals from the marine environment and is suitable as bio-indicator to assess the fluctuations in metal pollution in the Black Sea. |
