Abstract

Abstract

The pollution levels, spatial distribution, and human health risks of heavy metals in aquatic environment of a typical wetland in Sanjiang Plain were investigated and evaluated. The concentrations of Cu, Cr, Cd, Zn, and Ni were detected in multi-media (water, sediment, and wild fish species) collected from Qixing River wetland. The results showed that the average concentration of heavy metals were in the sequence of Zn (28.0) > Cr (4.5) > Cu (3.2) > Ni (2.6) > Cd (0.1) in water (μg/L), and Zn (139.4) > Cr (81.9) > Ni (45.7) > Cu (24.4) > Cd (0.2) in sediments (mg/kg). All concentrations of heavy metals measured in the water samples were lower than China’s National Standard of Surface Water Quality I, while the concentrations of Zn and Cd in sediments were elevated and compared to the soil environmental background value of Heilongjiang. Except for the concentration of Ni in Perccottus glenii samples were below the detection limit, all the heavy metals were detected in the wild fish species. And moderate accumulation of Zn was found in Cobitis granoe, while the four other heavy metals in wild fish species were in low accumulation status. The single risk factor (CF), taking the Aquatic Life Water Permissible Limits and Sediments Quality Guideline as the reference value, indicated a high risk threat to the aquatic organisms as affected by Cr alone, and Cr contributed most to the comprehensive risk index (PLI). The target hazard quotients (THQ) and hazard indexes (HI) of these five heavy metals were bellow 1, indicating that there was no non-carcinogenic risk via consumption of wild fish; while the carcinogenic risk metrics (CR) of Cd exceeded the cancer risk threshold (10^-5), indicative in elevation of cancer incidence in local consumers.
