Description

Analysis of the surface samples of the Havana Bay, Cuba, was performed by atomic emission spectrometry using inductively coupled plasma, ICP-AES, with a solid state detector. Fifteen element have been analysed: Al, Ba, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Ni, P, Pb, Sr and Zn. Granulometry measurements are performed. Multivariate statistical were used (correlation and factorial analysis) for the analysis of the results. The distribution of the metals is associated with the wastewater that receives the bay, it evidences the anthropogenic origin of these metals
