Risk assessment of mercury contamination in surface sediment of the Klang River, Malaysia

Total mercury contamination in 21 stations in Klang River. T-Hg concentrations were ranged from 0.02 to 0.45 μg g-1 dry weight surface sediments. Enrichment factor (EF), and sediment quality guidelines of threshold effect level (TEL) and probable effect level (PEL) were applied to calculate the degr...
