厦门港是我国东南沿海的天然良港。本文报道我们在1982年6月至1982年12月对厦门港海域36个测站水体、底质、生物体中重金属等污染物含量的调查研究结果。从调查结果看来水体和生物体中各测站污染物含量差别较小,质量良好。底质中污染物的含量也不超标,但各测站有较明显的差别。厦门港根据海域的自然地理分为三个区(见图1),Ⅰ区为集美海堤以东海域包括01-10站,处于较开阔环境,简称东港区。Ⅱ区为集美海堤以西海域包括11-21站,处于较封闭环境,亦称西港区。Ⅲ区包括22-36站为九龙江河口区和外港区。我们用前文[1]所述的因子分析法处理水质中污染物含量的数据,发现水质因流动性大,各站位污染物含量变化不大,统计处理的结果无明显的规律性。上文已指出底质中污染物含量用Q型因子分析法进行统计处理,结果表明36个测站表层沉积物大体可分成二类,一类沉积物粒度较细,有机质、硫化物,重金属含量较大,以西港区较封闭环境为代表。另一类沉积 Xiamen Port is a natural port of southeast coast of China. This article reports the results of a survey conducted on the water, sediment and heavy metals contents of 36 stations in the Xiamen Port from June 1982 to December 1982. It seems from the survey results that there is a small difference in the content of pollutants at each station in water bodies and organisms and the quality is good. The amount of pollutants in the sediment is not excessive, but there are more obvious differences between the stations. Xiamen Port is divided into three zones according to the natural geography of the sea area (see Figure 1). Area I is east of Jimei seawall, including 01-10 stations. It is in a relatively open environment, referred to as Donggang District. Area Ⅱ is Jimei seawall to the west, including 11-21 stations, in a more enclosed environment, also known as West Port. Area III includes 22-36 stations for the Jiulong River Estuary and Outer Harbor. We used the factor analysis method described in [1] above to process the data of pollutants in water quality. We found that due to the high fluidity of water quality and little change of pollutant content at each station, the results of statistical analysis showed no obvious regularity. It has been pointed out that the contaminant content in sediment was analyzed by Q-factor analysis. The results show that the surface sediments in 36 stations can be roughly classified into two types, one of which is finer in grain size, the other is organic matter, sulfide, heavy metal Larger, to the West more representative of the closed environment.
