Investigation of Heavy Metal Levels (Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr, Fe) in Hediste diversicolor and in their Habitat Sediment Collected from Homa Lagoon (İzmir Bay) between 2002-2004.

Abstract

The present study was conducted at Homa Lagoon - the only lagoon of the bay in which fishing activities are performed although it is located within the borders of Izmır Bird Paradise - with the aim to determine the concentrations of several heavy metals (cadmium, copper, lead, zinc, chrome and iron) in the polychaete Hediste diversicolor (Müller, 1776) and their habitat sediment. Metal concentrations of H. diversicolor was detected to reveal variation during the period of 2 years between Autumn 2002 and Summer 2004. The order of metal concentrations in H. diversicolor was found to be as CdCdCu in the sediment.
