R. Cecchi et al., GEOCHEMICAL PROCESSES IN VENICE LAGOON BY PIXE TECHNIQUE - AN OVERVIEW, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 109, 1996, pp. 407-414
This work is a review of the investigations that have been in progress
for about ten years which concentrate on the study of the distributio
n of pollutant metals in the Venice Lagoon system, using PIXE techniqu
e to analyse trace elements in surface water, pore water and sediment
samples. The concentration behavior is related to the complex processe
s that take places along the water column and at the water-sediment in
terface.
