The water ecological security of a river basin affects the vigorous growth of the regional economy and the healthy development of the ecological environment. Based on river physics, chemistry, and biological indicators, this study constructed a comprehensive assessment index system for the water ecological security of the Xiangjiang River Basin in China. The system consisted of 6 elements, and 18 indicators. This study used the analytic hierarchical process (AHP) to evaluate the water ecological security of the upstream, midstream, and downstream environments of the Xiangjiang River Basin. The results show that the overall ecological security of the upper and midstream portions of the Xiangjiang River Basin is relatively good, while the downstream section is at a general level.

  • Spatial Distribution and Health Risk Assessment of Dissolved Trace
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Spatial Distribution and Health Risk Assessment of Dissolved Trace Elements in Groundwater in southern China Congke Gu1,2, Yan Zhang3, Yu Peng1,2, Peifang Leng1,2, Nong Zhu1, Yunfeng Qiao1,2, Zhao Li1,2 & Fadong Li1,2 ✉ To understand the groundwater environmental quality and the impact of trace elements in the construction of urban agglomeration in China, this study collected 58 groundwater samples from the core area of the Chang-Zhu-Tan urban agglomeration (Changsha, Zhuzhou, Xiangtan) and quantitatively analyzed the content of 13 dissolved trace element and their spatial distribution characteristics. The health risk assessment model was further used to evaluate the human health risk caused by trace element pollution in groundwater. It was observed that Ba had the highest average concentration (0.28 mg·L−1), whereas Cd had the lowest (2.1 × 10−5 mg·L−1). Compared with China’s groundwater environmental quality standard, the exceeding rates of Se, Mn, Zn, and Ni concentrations were 37.93%, 17.24%, 1.72% and 1.72%, respectively. Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mo, and Pb did not exceed the corresponding standards. The 13 trace elements were distributed in a scattered pattern in space and the trace elements in both banks of the Xiang River, Zhuzhou, Weishui River and surrounding areas were relatively high. Health risk assessments showed that the carcinogenic risk values of Cd, Cr, and Pb and the health risk values of 10 non-carcinogenic elements were less than the corresponding maximum acceptable risk level. The health risks associated with non-carcinogenic substances through ingestion were higher than those associated with dermal absorption.

The geo-accumulation index (Igeo) and potential ecological risk index (RI) were used for the pollution assessment of the metals. The results showed that the ranges of metals were: 0.44 to 250.73 mg/kg for As, 0.02 to 8.67 mg/kg for Hg, 0.06 to 40 mg/kg for Cd, 0.81 to 251.58 mg/kg for Co, 4.69 to 460 mg/kg for Cr, 2.13 to 520.42 mg/kg for Cu, 39.76 to 1884 mg/kg for Mn, 1.91 to 203.11 mg/kg for Ni, 1.44 to 1434.25 mg/kg for Pb and 12.76 to 1737.35 mg/kg for Zn, respectively.
