Abstract
⺠Traffic-borne contamination leads to elevated Pt concentrations in coastal sediments. ⺠Up to 25-fold Pt enrichment was found in surface sediments of the Tagus Estuary. ⺠Down-core rapid decrease of Pt reveals the absence of significant previous inputs. ⺠Post-depositional mobility may disturb the anthropogenic Pt signature in sediments.
