Abstract
Purpose The Turvo/Grande drainage basin (TGDB), located in the northwestern region of Sao Paulo state, covers an area of 15,983 km2. The region is typically regarded as agricultural by the Sao Paulo State Environmental Agency, but the industrial area is expanding, and some studies have shown that metal concentrations in water can be higher than the values regulated by Brazilian law. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the role of sediments as a source or a sink of metals for drainage basin management.
