Assessment of Metal Levels in Biotic and Abiotic Materials from Giresun Forests

The study investigated the metal levels in biotic and abiotic materials from Giresun forests. While soil and water samples were selected as abiotic materials, leaves and moss were selected as biotic materials in forest. These selected materials were sampled from six stations. All samples were analyzed three times for arsenic, iron, chromium, copper, manganese, nickel, lead and zinc by ICPOES. A logarithmic transformation was done on the data to improve normality. One way ANOVA and Duncan’s multiple range tests were performed to test the differences among metal levels of stations. The differences among metal levels in stations were statistically significant (p

Giresun Ormanlarından Biyotik ve Abiyotik Materyallerde Metal Düzeylerinin Değerlendirilmesi

Bu çalışmada Giresun ormanlarından biyotik ve abiyotik materyallerdeki metal düzeyleri araştırılmıştır. Abiyotik mateyaller olarak toprak ve su örnekleri, biyotik materyaller olarak ise yaprak ve yosun numuneleri seçilmiştir. Tüm bu seçilen numunelerin örneklemeleri altı istasyondan yapılmıştır. Örneklenen numuneler ICP-OES cihazında arsenic, krom, demir, bakır, manganez, nikel, kurşun ve çinko içerikleri bakımından üçer kez analiz edilmiştir. Normalliği iyileştirmek için veriler logaritmik dönüşüme tabi tutulmuştur. İstasyonların metal seviyeleri arasındaki farklılıkları test etmek için tek yönlü varyans analizi ve Duncan çoklu karşılaştırma testi uygulanmıştır. İstasyonlardaki metal seviyeleri arasındaki farklılıklar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Ormanlardaki metal seviyeleri çevre sağlığı açısından değerlendirilmiştir
