摘要

The temporal and spatial distributions of Cu, Pb, Zn, and Cd in surface water of the Liaodong Bay were studied based on samples collected at 16 sites in June and August from 2001 to 2005. The temporal distribution showed decreasing trends. The concentrations of dissolved metals in the Liaodong Bay were 4.34, 3.21, 31.54, and 0.995 mu g/L for Cu, Pb, Zn, and Cd, respectively. Cu and Pb were scattered near the estuaries, and Zn and Cd were mainly found near the Wuli River. Rivers were the main metals pollution sources in the Bay.
