Abstract

Settling is one of the important transporting processes of pollutants in marine bay. Based on the analysis on the distributions of Cd in bottom waters in Jiaozhou Bay 1988, this paper defined the settling process. Results showed that Cd contents in bottom waters in Jiaozhou Bay in April and July 1988 were 0.08-0.10 μg L-1 and 0.09-0.61 μg L-1, respectively, indicated that the pollution level of Cd in bottom waters in this bay was still very slight in 1988. By means of vertical water’s effect, there were high settling regions from the bay mouth to the bay center in April 1988, and there were high settling regions in the inner side of the bay mouth in July 1988. By means of rising tide and falling tide, Cd from different sources was settling the moving path, resulting in high settling regions along with the moving path. As a result, during the settling process of Cd, drifting phenomenon was occurring.
