Eighteen trace elements were analyzed in a 120-year sediment core from Daya Bay. Burial flux history and potential provenance, the relationships among trace elements, and biogenic compositions were analyzed for determining the trend and extent of trace element accumulation and identifying corresponding anthropogenic effects. Additionally, the effects of anthropogenic activities on Daya Bay were reconstructed, and a baseline/background estimation was provided for Daya Bay. The burial fluxes of V, Cr, Cd, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Pb, Hg, Zn, Mo, Ag, As, Se, and Tl increased from 1960 to 2010, especially after the late 1980s. Our results are useful for understanding pollution and land-sea interactions along the coasts of the South China Sea, especially in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
