Metal concentrations were highly variable between locations and the average concentrations were 58.0 ㎎/㎏ for Cr, 10.6 ㎎/㎏ for Co, 24.9 ㎎/㎏ for Ni, 41.5 ㎎/㎏ for Cu, 139 ㎎/㎏ for Zn, 9.6 ㎎/㎏ for As, 0.36 ㎎/㎏ for Cd, 38.9 ㎎/㎏ for Pb and 0.061 ㎎/㎏ for Hg, respectively. The concentrations of metals in sediments were moderately contaminated, showing a decrease trend with distance from the pollution source originating primarily from urbanization and industrialization. Sediments from four bays represent highly industrialized sites including Shihwa, Masan, Gwangyang and Ulsan were highly contaminated with metals and their average concentrations were significantly higher than those found in sediments of other sites. Metals showed significantly positive correlations among them suggesting that sources of metal pollution were attributed to anthropogenic inputs from surrounding environments, especially national industrial complex. Different metal assessment indices, including enrichment factors, geo-accumulation index and pollution load index were discussed to interpret the pollution status for metals. The results of those indices indicated that metal pollution for Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Pb and Hg was occurred in the coast of Korea due to rapid industrialization. The enrichment factor of heavy metals were decreased following the order Cu>Hg>Cd>Zn>As>Pb>Co>Cr>Ni, with higher contribution about 72% to the sum of Cu, Hg, Cd and Zn. The results in the present study are compared to the threshold effect level (TEL) and the probable effect level (PEL) to assess adverse ecological risks of heavy metal. Especially, sediments from highly industrialized bays were most toxic for Cu and Zn due to exceedances of the PEL values at more than 20% of sampling sites. Toxicity for other metals such as Cr, Ni, As and Pb concentrations ranged from the TEL to the PEL values at more than 87% of sampling sites. The metal concentrations of Cd and Hg in most sampling sediments are below the TEL values. Considering with SQGs, metal concentrations in sediments from the coast of Korea is predicted to be a threat to the marine environments.
국내 연안의 중금속 오염도를 평가하기 위하여 13개 해역 표층퇴적물을 채취하여 ICP-MS를 이용하여 분석을 실시하였다. 시료채취 해역에 따라 큰 농도차이를 보이고 있었으며, 전국 연안 표층 퇴적물 내 중금속 농도의 평균은 Cr 58.0 ㎎/㎏, Co 10.6 ㎎/㎏, Ni 24.9 mg/Kg, Cu 41.5 ㎎/㎏, Zn 139 ㎎/㎏, As 9.6 ㎎/㎏, Cd 0.36 ㎎/㎏, Pb 38.9 ㎎/㎏, Hg 0.061 ㎎/㎏으로 나타났다. 산업화 혹은 도시화가 지역에서의 중금속 농도가 상대적으로 높았으며 오염원에서 가까운 연안해역에서 외해역으로 갈수록 농도가 감소하는 경향을 보이고 있었다. 또한 시화, 마산, 광양 및 울산 등의 특별관리해역 내에서의 중금속 오염도가 다른 해역에 비해 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 농축계수를 통해 각 중금속 원소의 오염도를 평가한 결과 지역에 따라 약간의 차이는 있으나 Cu의 오염도가 가장 심하였으며 Cu>Hg>Cd>Zn>As>Pb>Co>Cr>Ni 순이었다. 이중 Cu, Hg, Cd 및 Zn의 오염도가 측정한 9개 중금속 중 72% 이상의 대부분을 차지하고 있었다.
