The concentrations of ?DDT and PCBs in surface sediments collected in the Gulf of Venice are reported. The contribution of the lagoon and of the rivers to sea sediment contamination is discussed. Fresh waters reaching the sea through the lagoon or directly from rivers are responsible for relatively high ?DDT concentrations. The Porto Marghera industrial zone located in the inner border of the lagoon is probably the main PCB source. Two transport mechanisms have been identified: mobilization of suspended solids by tidal movements and direct dumping of industrial tailing and/or dredged materials from the lagoon canals. |
