grass Paspalum vaginatum; and the mangrove fern Acrostichum speciosum. Each plant

sample was processed to provide a stem (above ground tissue) and root (below

ground tissue) sample. Soil from the roots of each plant sample was also collected.

Hence, each plant sample has a corresponding soil sample.

B.2 Data Quality of Mouth Sediment Element Determination

The analytical quality data for the HClO4+HF+HNO3+HCl digest with ICP-MS analysis

conducted by ALS and presented in Tables B.7 and B.8 applies to the mouth sediment elemental

composition data (Chapter 6).

Table B.7. Accuracy data for the mouth sediment element determination using

HClO4+HF+HNO3+HCl digest and ICP-MS analysis conducted be ALS. The

SRM used was GXR-3. Assessment for valid reproducibility was a percentage

difference from the standard value (%∆SRM) less than 30 where the value was five

times greater than the detection limit and 50 for values less than five times the

lower detection limit. Elements in bold (i.e. Al, Cu and Sc) exceeded the threshold

and were removed from the dataset.

B.6 Data Quality of the Plant Analyses

Table B.9 provides reproducibility data for the digest and analysis of the plant samples. The

elemental concentration of the plant samples is reported in Chapter 7. There is no accuracy data

for the plant samples because a suitable SRM was not available.

Table B.9. Reproducibility data for the plant digest (HNO3+H2O2) and analysis (ICP-MS)

greater than the detection limit and 50 for values less than five times the lower

detection limit. Elements in bold (i.e. Ni) exceeded the threshold and were
