摘要: This study was accomplished in the estuarine system of Santos State Sao Paulo, an area under influence a large industrial park. Bottom sediment samples were analyzed for Hg, As and organic matter (elementary carbon). The results reveal anthropogenic contamination some sections area, being attributed to petrochemical metallurgic park Cubatao, effluents Metallurgical Company Paulo (COSIPA), effluent discharge submarine outfall Bay. Correlations obtained between indicate that these bottom sediments accumulate pollutants constitute potential source system.
