| Abstract | ||
| ArcGIS 9.2 software was used to analyze the some heavy metals concentrations in water of marshlands in southern Iraq during June 2008 and January 2009. The study included field measurements for Physical and chemical characteristics of water samples in six sites distributed in the Hammar, Central and Hawizeh marshes, and laboratory measurements have included measuring the concentration of some heavy metals (Pb,Ni,Cd,Cr,Cu,Co,Mn,Zn) and TH. The results shown that the values of air, water temperature were high in June, while water depth was high in January. pH values are lies between (6.5-8.5). EC values in all sites are exceeded Iraqi and WHO standards. The highest salinity and TH values were registered during June, as well as the highest contaminations of most heavy metals because of the evaporation and degradations of organic matter.
