摘要：
The dataset for this manuscript with the spatial distribution of heavy metals such as Mn, Zn, Ni, Co, Pb, Cr, Cu and Fe, pollution indices of the surface sediments in the Emerald Lake, India, the significant source of pollution, are determined. The methods for calculation of pollution indices such as Enrichment Factor (EF), Contamination Degree (CD), modified Contamination degree (mCd) and Contamination factor (CF) are considered to know the level of heavy metal pollution in the study area. In this data, the results of pollution indices suggest that almost all the sites are polluted by heavy metals. The data could be very useful to metal pollutants and their sources in the surface sediments. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Inc.
