Abstract

Highlights: [•] The lowest total metal concentrations were detected at sites close to the dam wall. [•] Heavy metal concentrations were very low, reflecting the natural background levels. [•] The mean concentrations of metals never exceeded drinking water quality guidelines. [•] PCA/FA demonstrated dissolved metals in the reservoirs controlled by natural sources.
