RT Journal Article T1 Factores de enriquecimiento metálico en sedimentos holocenos del estuario del río Tinto (SO de España) T1 Metal Enrichment Factors in Holocene Sediments in the Tinto River Estuary (SW Spain) A1 López González, Nieves A1 Borrego Flores, José A1 Carro Flores, Berta A1 Lozano Soria, O. AB Metal concentration in sediments samples from two vibracores in the Tinto river estuary it has beendetermined. The enrichment factors (EF) of metal associated to sulphide deposits (Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb and As),in most cases, is over 2. Cu, Zn and As have much higher EF, over 10 in surficial samples. The progressiveshallowness of the estuary has undergone a relative increase in acidic river water volume with respect toseawater. This effect has originated a downstream displacement of acid mixing processes affecting theestuary, which is reflected in higher metal concentration in sediments of the outer zones of the system PB Sociedad Geológica de España YR 2004 FD 2004 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/8868 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/8868 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 1 jun 2026
