ABSTRACT
Soil/sediment samples of four different land types were collected from aquaculture land, farmland, industrial land and river bottom sediment in the estuary area of Dagu River. The contents of Cr, Cu, Zn, As, Cd and Pb in 0-30 cm inner surface samples were detected, and the distribution characteristics of heavy metal content in surface soil/sediment of different land use types in the estuary area were analyzed. Local accumulation index method, potential risk index evaluation method and principal component analysis method were used to analyze the pollution status and sources of heavy metals. The results showed that the heavy metal accumulation levels in soil and sediment samples in the study area were As > Cd > Cu > Pb > Zn > Cr, and the heavy metal content exceeded the soil background value in Shandong Province, but the potential risks were all in a low risk state. The main sources of Cr, Zn and As are transportation sources and natural sources, while the main sources of Cd and Pb are agricultural.
