Assessment of contamination of the estuarine area of the Northern Dvina River by calculating background concentrations (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb, and Ni)

This publication is a continuation of research on the quantitation of the heavy metal contamination level (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb, and Ni) in the ecosystem components of the estuarine area of the Northern Dvina River. To assess the contamination level with these metals in the ecosystem of the North...
