The Pollution Status of Surface Sediments
along the Turkish Coast of the Black Sea
Mürşide Sur, Halil. I. Sur, Reşat Apak, Erol Erçağ
1
Why sediments are important ?
• Resources (petroleum and natural gas,
minerals, etc.)
• Record of past processes and conditions on
the earth.
( Rates of continental erosion and transport by
rivers, Biological activity in surface waters etc.)
• Aquatic life
Sediment Pollution: Contaminants & loose particles from soil, rock,
suspended in a body of water
settle to the bottom
2
Sources of sediment &pollutants
Sediment
Sea Water
Natural:
Weathering
of rocks
and soil
Atm
Antropogenic : can be result of (directly & runoff)
Mining
Industrial Domestic
Agricultural
River
*Metal form (org,inor, dis,part.)
*Presence of other substances
*Water system (T,S,DO, pH,current,etc)
*Biological system (age,size,activity etc)
*Dissolution,
*Sorption onto org.
inorg particles
* Precipitation
* Transportation
*Products of weathering and erosion
*Biogenic particles produced
*Chemical precipitates

SUMMARY
Industrial ,
*SK1 Very high contaminated
domestic waste discharges
*SK2 Considerably contaminated
Agricultural runoff
* Şile Low degree contaminated
* EBS considerable degree contaminated
* WBS moderately contaminated
Hg and V dominant pollutants
Al, Cd, Cu, Pb moderately or low level pollutants
To prevent;
*Erosion control (stream bank fencing , reducing impervious surfaces,
creating rain garden, strip cropping etc.)
*Waste water treatment – industrial -domestic,
