Surface sediments (n ¼ 85) from a 160-km river-estuarine transect of the Clyde, UK, were analysed for total mercury (Hg), saturated hydrocarbons and unresolved complex mixtures (UCMs) of hydrocarbons. Results show that sediment-Hg concentration ranges from 0.01 to 1.38 mg kg–1 (mean 0.20 mg kg–1) and a spatial trend in Hg-content low–high–low–high, from freshwater source, to Glasgow, to estuary, is evident. In summary, sediment-Hg content is low in the upper Clyde (mean of 0.05 Hg mg kg–1), whereas sediments from the Clyde in urbanised Glasgow have higher Hg concentrations (0.04 to 1.26 mg kg–1; mean 0.45mgkg–1), and the inner estuary sediments contain less Hg (mean 0.06 mg kg–1). The highest mean sediment Hg (0.65 mg kg–1) found in...
