    Abstract

    In order to understand the environmental geochemistry of the Lower Baram River, seasonal surface water and sediment samples, core sediments, and root, bark and leaves from mangrove trees were collected and examined for major, trace and rare earth elements. The provenance and prevailing geochemical processes which govern the characteristics of water and sediments were revealed. Further, risk assessment and bioaccumulation of trace elements as well as the mechanism of element uptake in mangroves were discussed.

    Curtin would like to pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members of our community by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which the Perth campus is located, the Whadjuk people of the Nyungar Nation; and on our Kalgoorlie campus, the Wongutha people of the North-Eastern Goldfields.
