Significant effect (negative and positive correlation) were observed between the heavy metal concentrations in the SPM and, temperature, salinity, pH and oxygen concentrations (p<0.05,p<0,01).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCoastal zonesLeadOxygenHeavy metal concentrationHeavy metal levelsOxygen concentrationsPositive correlationsSuspended particulate materialWater temperaturesCopperConference Object28658742-s2.0-84900822043N/A
