- Abstract
We analyzed the horizontal distribution, vertical distribution and sedimentation process of Cd in Jiaozhou Bay based on investigation data in April, July and October 1985. Results showed that Cd contents were in order of summer > autumn > spring. For spacial scale, the seasonal variations of Cd in surface and bottom waters were consist. For variation scale, the variation range of Cd in surface waters were bigger than in bottom waters due to the sedimentation and accumulation of Cd, yet the difference was small. For vertical scale, Cd contents in surface and bottom waters were closed no matter Cd contents in waters were high or low. For regional scale, the Cd flux from inflow streams was the force of the vertical variations of Cd in surface and bottom waters. We defined the sedimentation process of Cd that for spatial-temporal variation, Cd in bottom waters was increasing continuously along with the sedimentation of Cd in and out of the bay. Furthermore, we defined the vertical distribution process of Cd in surface and bottom waters that the differences of Cd contents between surface and bottom waters were increasing along with time passed by, yet a new circle would begin in the following year.
