Abstract

This paper analyzed the vertical and seasonal distribution of Cd in Jiaozhou Bay bottom waters in 1983. Results showed that Cd contents ranged from 0.13-0.53 g L-1, indicated that the pollution level of Cd in Jiaozhou Bay was very low in the early stage of reform and opening-up. Cd contents in surface waters were in orders of spring < summer < autumn, while for bottom waters were summer < spring < autumn. The distributions of Cd in surface and bottom water were reverse before the wet season, while for wet season were consistent. River discharge, marine terminals, island head, and overland runoff were the major sources of Cd. There were always high value regions around Site H35 in the bay mouth in different seasons, which were determined by the high flow rate was high in the bay mouth, indicated that there was an aggregation process by means of the movement of the water body.
