“…Fe concentrations in oysters (C. madrasensis) were lower than those reported by Parvez Al-Usmani et al(2015) in Saccostrea cucullata from Goa, west coast of India. The iron concentration recorded in C. madrasensis in the present study was similar to those of S. cucullata from Bombay coast (KrishnaKumari et al, 1992) (312 ± 160 mg/kg dry wt) and in Ostrea edulis from east coast of India (80.49 mg/kg wet wt)(Satheeswaran et al 2019).…”

Trace metal concentrations were monitored in the yellow clam (Paphia malabarica), green mussel (Perna viridis) and edible oyster (Crassostrea madrasensis) from growing areas in the Ashtamudi and Vembanad estuaries, Kerala. Ranges of mean annual concentrations (mg/kg) were Ni (0.46-0.65); Co (2.87-3.49); Fe (80.0-119.4); Mn (3.88-9.38); Zn (40.8-76.2); Pb (1.28-2.00); . In Ashtamudi, clams had higher mean concentrations of Ni, Co, Fe, Mn and Pb than oysters. Mean concentrations of Ni, Pb (in all species), Zn (in clams and mussels) and Cu (in mussels) did not exceed maximum permissible limits mandated by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India. Mean Mn concentrations exceeded the World Health Organization guideline in the three species while mean Fe concentrations in clams and oysters did not exceed the guideline. Target hazard quotients were generally ≤ 1, except for a few Pb results in clams and mussels. Although results suggest no health risk to consumers for the reference doses, daily intakes and elements considered, regular monitoring of trace metals is recommended to maintain consumer protection given increasing anthropogenic and climatic pressures on the shell sh growing areas.

“…In the study on Nellore (India) coastal sediments, the order of the risk index of the trace metals were found as follows: Cd > Pb > Cu > Cr > Zn [40]. In another study conducted in India, heavy metal anomalies were found in the coastal sediments of Tamil Nadu, and the researchers mentioned natural indicators [41]. On the other hand, index calculations and statistical analyses were used in the study on Gabes Coast (Tunisia) beach sands, and it was revealed that Cu, Cd, and Zn were enriched and posed ecological risks [32].…”

Multivariate statistical methods are widely used in several disciplines of fundamental sciences. In the present study, the data analysis of the chemical analysis of the sands of Moonlight Beach in the Kemer region was examined using multivariate statistical methods. This study consists of three parts. The multivariate statistical analysis tests were described in the first part, then the pollution indexes were studied in the second part. Finally, the distribution maps of the chemical analyses and pollution indexes were generated using the obtained data. The heavy metals were mostly observed in location K1, while they were sorted as follows based on their concentrations: Mg > Fe > Al > Ti > Sr > Mn > Cr > Ni > Zn > Zr > Cu > Rb. Also, strong positive correlations were found between Si, Fe, Al, K, Ti, P. According to the results of factor analysis, it was found that four factors explained 83.5% of the total variance. On the other hand, the coefficient of determination (R2) was calculated as 63.6% in the regression model. Each unit increase in the value of Ti leads to an increase of 0.022 units in the value of Si. Potential Ecological Risk Index analysis results (RI < 150) revealed that the study area had no risk. However, the locations around Moonlight Beach are under risk in terms of Enrichment Factor and Contamination Factor values. The index values of heavy metals in the anomaly maps and their densities were found to be successful; and higher densities were observed based on heavy metal anomalies.

“…Although several studies on water quality have been conducted in other Indian coastal regions (Renjith et al, 2015;Jha et al, 2015;Yuvaraj et al, 2018;Satheeswaran et al, 2019;Ratnam et al, 2022), there is relatively less work carried out on the seawater quality characteristics for such a long coastal stretch in this region. Recently, Barath Kumar et al (2018) have studied seawater characteristics at 8 locations over a 300 km coastal stretch along the Tamil Nadu coast.…”
