Abstract

This paper analyzed the content, distribution, and sedimentation mechanism of Cd in Jiaozhou Bay based on investigation data in April, July and October 1985. Results showed that the Cd contents in surface waters ranged from 0.04-0.32 g L-1, and were meeting Grade I for Cd (1.00 g L-1) in Chinese Sea Water Quality Standard, indicated that Jiaozhou Bay and the open sea had not been polluted by Cd in 1985. High Cd sedimentation locations were occurring in different regions due to Cd contents were different in surface waters. In April and October, high Cd sedimentation location was in the open sea in where marine current was the major source; while in July, high Cd sedimentation location was in the bay mouth in where stream flow was the major source. In generally, the spatial-temporal of sedimentation features of Cd were determined by pollution sources and the vertical water’s effect.
