Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Shu-ying Zang"
- Shu-Ying Zang's research primarily focuses on the assessment of pollution characteristics in aquatic environments, particularly concerning polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metals, emphasizing the ecological risks they pose to local ecosystems.
- Key findings reveal significant concentrations of PAHs in water and fish tissues from Daqing Lakes, as well as the distribution and ecological risks of heavy metals in sediments from various lakes and wetlands in China, indicating varying levels of contamination and ecological impact.
- The studies utilize advanced analytical methods, such as inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and principal component analysis (PCA), to identify pollution sources and assess the historical trends of contaminants over time, contributing to an improved understanding of environmental quality in freshwater ecosystems.
