摘要: The present study investigates the distribution of heavy metals (Fe, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn and Pb) in surface sediments along Coromandel Coast Bay Bengal as an indicator marine pollution. Pollution indices such Contamination factor (CF), Enrichment (EF) Geo-accumulation index (I) were performed to assess spatial pollution status area. metal concentration area is closely associated with grain size organic matter. Both geoaccumulation contamination indicate that are free from regards Cr followed by uncontamination moderate Cu Zn. However, found be extremely polluted respect Cd Pb. Factor analysis reveals accumulation these shelf due anthropogenic inputs adjacent land
