Arsenic and mercury contamination of sediments of geothermal springs, mangrove lagoon and the Santispac bight, Bahía Concepción, Baja California Peninsula

In order to find out the environmental impact on the coastal zone, the composition of sediments of the intertidal hot spring zone and adjacent area of the Playa Santispac in the pristine Bahía Concepción (Baja California peninsula) was studied. High concentrations of As (13-111 mg/kg) and Hg (0.55-2...
