Abstract
Coastal waters were oftenly considerred as a final destination of pollution transported
from landbase as well as seabased activities. The present study aims at gaining
information on contamination of Pb, Cu, Cd and Zn in the srait of Selat Panjang. Heavy
metals analysis were performed for water column as well as marine sedimen as
indicator of pollution. Five stasion with three replicates were spacially established
within the study area. The sediment samples were collected with Eckman Grab and
kept in ice box prior to analysing in Laboratorium. Heavy metals analysis were
performed using AAS Perkin Elmer (Model 3110).
It revealed that concentration of Pb, Cu, Cd and Zn of sediment range; (0,157-0,330),
(0.035-0.374), (0.083-1.127) and (0.498-0.988), respectively. Compared to heavy
metals concentration in water column, the concentration factors in sediment appeared
35, 40, 40 and 5.5 fold, respectively. It indicated that the ecokinetics of heavy metals in
the long run accumulated in marine sediment.
