Abstract
⺠We have examined TOC and heavy metal elements of surface sediments recovered from the eastern Beibu Bay. ⺠Cd contamination is present in the study area primarily attributed to rivers input around. ⺠Fine clay particles and organic matter act as important trace metals carrier in sediments. ⺠Zn, Cr, Pb, partly Cu were mainly from lithogenic inputs nearby. Hg and As were mainly from anthropogenic input.
