Abstract

Biomonitoring of heavy metals in the southern sector of the Far Eastern Marine Reserve. E.N. CHERNOVA1, 2, E.V. LYSENKO1 (1Pacific Geographical Institute, FEB RAS, Vladivostok, 2Far Eastern Federal University, Vladivostok).

The metals content in Sargassum from the southern area of the Far Eastern Marine Biosphere Reserve in 2015 were studied. Metals in macrophytes are found mainly in concentrations of the background range. Long-term observations of macrophytes (1987, 1996, 1998, 2008 and 2015) have shown that Cu, Zn, Cd concentrations in algae are currently decreasing compared to the period 1996–1998, probably due to the dynamics of global air transport of pollutants.
