Geoenvironmental Evaluation and Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in Sediment, Minichinda Stream, Port Harcourt, Nigeria
Abstract: The pollution status and risk assessment of the heavy metals in the sediment from Minichinda stream, Port Harcourt were studied. Sediment samples collected for twelve Months from four stations were analyzed for heavy metals using spectrophotometer as in the standard method. The mean values for the respective heavy metals (mg/kg) include Cd (0.496±0.20), Cr (0.460±0.17), Pb (0.469±0.20), Cu (0.738±0.26) and Fe (15.05). The spatial mean concentration of the metals varied …
