Content available remote Spatial distribution of arsenic in surface sediments of the southern Baltic Sea
EN
Arsenic is a ubiquitous chemical element, occurring naturally worldwide. Yet due to its global cycle, its concentrations in the marine environment are manifold higher than the terrestrial background and may pose harm to biota. This is especially relevant for the Baltic Sea, which is very susceptible to any kind of pollution. Arsenic transported to the sea is adsorbed on iron oxides or precipitating as flocculating particulates and finally bounded in sediments. Therefore, despite the contemporary emission cuts, the existing pollution remains or constantly circulates in marine habitats. The purpose of the research was to recognize the spatial distribution of arsenic in the surface sediments of the southern parts of the Baltic Sea. The number of 483 samples allowed us to prepare reliable interpolation of arsenic contents in surface sediments. Although arsenic concentrations in the Baltic Sea can be considered low, in particular areas the levels are significantly higher. The observed arsenic concentrations distribution pattern could be mostly explained by natural transportation and accumulation bottom-type distribution.
