Tóm tắt

To investigate the spatial and historical distributions, and source contributions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) from the middle reach of Huai River, 15 surface sediments and two sediment cores were analyzed. The Σ16 PAHs levels in surface sediments varied from 533.15 to 1422.83 ng/g dw, and from 413.27 to 43951.56 ng/g dw in individual sediment layer of sediment cores. The temporal trends of PAHs in sediment cores are the good indicators of the anthropogenic emissions over the last 60 years. The stable carbon isotope ratios of PAHs indicate the primary PAHs sources were the combustion of wood and coal during 1950s–1970s, and automobile exhausts and the coal combustion emissions in recent decades.
