Metal concentrations in selected seagrasses along the Davao City Coastline

Abstract / Excerpt:

The specific questions which this study will try to find answers to are: 1. What is the extent of concentrations levels of the metals Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, and Fe in seagrass leaves according to species of seagrass?; 2. For the same species, what is the extent of concentration level of the metals Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, and Fe in seagrass leaves according to sample location?; 3. For each metal and each species, what is the correlation of concentration levels found in the leaves with that found in the water column?; 4. For each metal and species, what is the correlation of concentration levels found in the leaves with the extractable metal concentration level found in the sediments?; 5. In each given species, what is the correlation between concentrations of any two different metals?.
