Heavy metals and arsenic in soil and vegetation of Niger Delta, Nigeria: Ecological risk assessment

Heavy metals and arsenic in soil and vegetation of Niger Delta, Nigeria: Ecological risk assessment

Present study has evaluated the occurrence of heavy metal HM in soil/vegetation, the ecological risk assessment of HM in crude oil rich Niger Delta, Nigeria. All samples were processed, and HM were assayed using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry. HM concentration in soil and vegetation were determ...
