Dear honorable Researcher , How can I calculate and represent data in the form of factor heavy metal evaluation index and degree of contamination for paper. My Study on Heavy metal of River, Site: 10, Total heavy metal: 8, Sample Collection: Pre-Monsoon, Monsoon and Post-Monsoon. Please give a example and formula for this calculation. Please elaborate with example because I’m not a mathematical background.
Hi!
well, we have worked in our group in the contamination of sediments and I hope that the attached paper will help you.
Regards
Dear Sir, Hoping that you are hale and hearty by the grace of the almighty. I am so thankful to you for sending such a good paper. Please accept my very sincere gratitude. I really appreciate your great support.
It is dependent on the media the concentrations have been measured. For example, for food you can use the FAO permissible limits for human consumption. For the ecosystem is more complex. Nevertheless you can use a unify model for the pollution assessment based on the impact level of organisms proposed by Polikarpov G. G., 1998. Radiat. Protect. Dosim. 75 (1-4), 181-185.
and another paper that might be usefull

Dear Heleny Mam, Hoping that you are hale and hearty by the grace of the almighty. I am so thankful to you for sending such a good suggestion. Please accept my very sincere gratitude. I really appreciate your great support.
Dear A.N. Singh,
A convenient way to evaluate the overall quality degradation (related with concentrations of specific contaminants) of surface or groundwaters is the PoS index. It easy to use and does not require any mathematical skills. Here is the paper
cheers
For sediments Pollution Load Index and Geoaccumulation Index can be usefull. There are several similar approaches. Regards.
