Popis: Surficial marine sediment samples were collected along the southeastern Black Sea (Trabzon) coast. The sampling was conducted in June 2019 from eleven stations, with the depths varying between 8 and 30 m. Metal concentrations (Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni, As, and Cr) were evaluated in four different sediment size fractions; 0.063 mm (F1), 0.125 mm (F2), 0.25 mm (F3), and 0.5 mm (F4). Geoaccumulation Index (I
