Påverkan av gruvdrift på sedimentegenskaper och toxicitet för akvatiska organismer i norra Sverige

One sediment profile per lake was analyzed and the age of different sediment layers was estimated, to be able to correlate the results with known activities during the development of the mine. Number of variables: 17 Number of rows (incl. header): 76 Variable List: Site: Lake origin of the sediment core (Lake 1, Lake 2 or Lake 3) Depth: Depth of the analyzed sediment layer (cm) for each core Zn: Zinc concentration in the sediment layer (mg kg-1) Pb: Lead concentration in the sediment layer (mg kg-1) Density: Density of the sediment layer (g cm-3) LOI: Loss on ignition for each sediment layer (%) TOC: Total organic carbon for each sediment layer (%) PECQ: Predicted effect concentration quotient for each sediment layer PECQ.norm: Predicted effect concentration quotient for each sediment layer, normalized to total organic carbon content 210Pb: 210Pb activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 46.5keV SD(210Pb): Standard deviation of 210Pb activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 46.5keV 214Pb(295keV): 214Pb activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 295keV SD(295keV): Standard deviation of 214Pb activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 295keV 214Pb(351 keV): 214Pb activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 351keV SD(351 keV): Standard deviation of 214Pb activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 351keV 137Cs: 137Cs activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1), measured at 662keV SD(137Cs): Standard deviation of 137Cs activity for each sediment layer (Bq kg-1) Missing data codes: NA – not analyzed
