Enhancing source identification of water-soluble heavy metal contamination in urban road sediments: a receptor model approach for water and sediment quality in a Chinese metropolitan area

Enhancing source identification of water-soluble heavy metal contamination in urban road sediments: a receptor model approach for water and sediment quality in a Chinese metropolitan area

This study investigates the concentrations and sources of 8 heavy metals in urban road sediments and a total of 116 samples were collected from 29 locations, with four samples per location from Zhengzhou, China. Pb concentrations significantly exceeded background values, while Hg levels showed varia...
