Elemental characterization of the Persian Gulf sediments near the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant

Thirty-three sediment samples from four shoreline and three sea positions in a defined sampling grid around the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP) have been taken over six sampling periods during 1996-1997. Elemental analysis of the samples has been performed with neutron activation and concentratio...

Description
Summary:Thirty-three sediment samples from four shoreline and three sea positions in a defined sampling grid around the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP) have been taken over six sampling periods during 1996-1997. Elemental analysis of the samples has been performed with neutron activation and concentrations of seventeen elements have been obtained. Cross-correlation analysis has been carried out and four categories of related elements have been defined.
