“…For example lead values in Lake Velnezers sediments reach 137 mg/kg, which is significantly higher than in Lake Lilaste (18.5 mg/ kg to 35.7 mg/kg) and Lake Veveri (18.7 mg/kg). However, even the highest Pb concentrations in comparison with detected metal concentration in the West European countries (de Boer et al 2001;Martin 2004;Wildi et al 2004;Thevenon et al 2011;Ong et al 2013) in studied lake sediments is low.…”

“…Trace metal concentrations in the Vistula River Valley sediments of the study area are lower than in floodplain sediments of contaminated European rivers, such as: Rhine (Martin 2004), Dill (Martin 2015), Seine River (Grosbois et al 2006) or Odiel River (Santos Bermejo et al 2003).…”

“…River channels are in fact the basic zones (routes) of migration of these elements, and the surfaces of floodplains are the major areas of their concentration (accumulation) and redeposition (Ciszewski 2003). However, despite a direct relationship between the content of anthropogenically introduced elements in river water and alluvial sediments, their concentrations in the individual grain-size fractions often show significant differences (Martin 2004). Changes in the supply of trace elements in the history of the drainage basin in the particular section of the river valley can also show a completely different record in the individual morphodynamic zones of its floodplain (Falkowska and Falkowski 2015).…”

“…Trace elements stored in floodplains and channel sediments have the potential to serve as future sources of pollution and depend on factors such as the proximity of contaminated sediment to the active channel (lateral and vertical) and the intensity of the geomorphic activity along the river (Martin 2004). Published literature on sediment-associated trace elements' dispersion processes in rivers can be used to understand the processes and the space and timescales over which they operate; this knowledge can be used in a practical way to help river basin managers more effectively control and remediate basins, particularly those affected by current and historical mining of trace elements (Macklin et al 2006).…”
