Tidal freshwater marshes exist at the interface between watersheds and estuaries, and thus may serve as critical buffers
protecting estuaries from anthropogenic metal pollution. Bi-weekly samples of newly deposited marsh sediments were collected
and analyzed for Cu, Zn, and Fe concentrations over 21 months from July 1995 to March 1997 in five distinct habitats at the
head of Bush River, Maryland. Bi-weekly anthropogenic metal enrichments ranged from 0.9–4.7. Anthropogenic excess metal loadings
averaged over 1996 ranged from 6–306 and 25–1302 μg cm−2 year−1 between sites for Cu and Zn, respectively. Based on Fe-normalized trace metal signatures, Susquehanna River sediment does
not significantly contribute to upper Bush River. Organic matter was found to dilute total metal concentrations, whereas past
studies suggested organics enhance labile metal content. Analysis of metal input pathways shows that marsh metals are primarily
imported from nearby subtidal accumulations of historic watershed material by tidal flushing.

Heavy metals in Oka river sediments (Urdaibai National Biosphere Reserve, northern Spain): lithogenic and anthropogenic effects 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The Oka River basin is located in the Urdaibai National Biosphere Reserve, North Spain. In order to obtain a preliminary
view of its environmental conditions, nitric acid extractable Fe, Mn, Zn, Pb, Cu, Cr, Ni and Co, organic matter content (L.O.I.),
geochemical fractionation of heavy metals and mineralogical composition were analysed in surficial sediments (fraction <63 μm)
collected in October 1991. Relatively high concentrations of metals occurred in a sampling site upstream, due to a local natural
enrichment controlled by weathering of volcanic rocks. Geochemical fractionation confirmed the lithogenic origin of metals,
which were mainly associated to the detrital phase. The significant increase of heavy metals found in some samples collected
in the municipal area of Gernika suggested a pollution effect, related to anthropogenic wastes. Large amounts of metallic
slags have been found mixed with the sediments upstream from this locality. Nevertheless, in view of their composition, it
is unlikely that these slags constitute a significant source of heavy metals in the studied area. In a second sampling in
October 1997 an apparent decreasing trend in some heavy metal levels was noted, particularly for Pb and Cu. Nowadays, enrichment
factors relative to background values confirm moderate anthropogenic influence on Zn, Pb, Cu, Cr and Ni concentrations. However,
heavy metal levels in the Oka river sediments are much lower than those detected in other major rivers of the Basque Country
(Nervión, Urumea, Deba).

The major (Al, Ti, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Si) and trace element (Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Li, Ni, Pb, V, Zn) concentrations in surficial
(<20 cm) sediments from fjords and open coastal waters around Greenland have been determined. Regionally, high concentrations
of Fe, Ti, Mg, Cr, Cu, Ni, and V occur in some west and east coast sediments, but they appear to be natural in origin, as
there is no indication of anthropogenic influence. Chemical partition indicates that most of the heavy metals are structurally
bound in various silicate, oxide, and sulfide minerals. These host minerals occur more or less equally in the coarse and fine
sediment fractions (material >63 μm and <63 μm) and have accumulated at the same rate as other detrital clastic material.
Provenance and glaciomarine deposition are the main factors controlling the abundance and distribution of the major and trace
elements. The chemical composition reflects the mineralogical differences in the provenance of glacial marine material deposited
by water and ice adjacent to Greenland. The main source of the sediments enriched in Ti, Fe, Mg, Cr, Cu, Ni, and V appears
to be material derived from the volcanic rocks of the Mesozoic-Tertiary Provinces of Greenland by glacial erosion.

Heavy meals in urban roadside soils, part 1: effect of particle size fractions on heavy metals partitioning 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Urban roadside soils are important environmental media for assessing heavy metal concentrations in urban environment. However, among other things, heavy metal concentrations are controlled by soil particle grain size fractions. In this study, two roadside sites were chosen within the city of Xuzhou (China) to reflect differences in land use. Bulk soil samples were collected and then divided by particle diameter into five physical size fractions, 500–250, 250–125, 125–74, 74–45, < 45 μm. Concentrations of metals (Ti, Cr, Al, Ga, Pb, Ba, Cd, Co, Cu, Mn, Ni, V, Zn, Mo, As, Sb, Se, Hg, Bi, Ag) were determined for each individual fraction. These metals could be roughly classified into two groups: anthropogenic element (Pb, Ba, Cd, Cu, Zn, Mo, As, Sb, Se, Hg, Bi, Ag) and lithophile element (Ti, Cr, Al, Ga, Co, Mn, Ni, V) in terms of values of enrichment factor. As expected, higher concentrations of anthropogenic heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Mo, As, Hg, Bi, Ag) are observed in the finest particle grain size fraction (i.e. < 45 μm). However, heavy metals Se, Sb and Ba behave independently of selected grain size fractions. From the viewpoint of mass loading, more than 30% of the concentrations for all anthropogenic heavy metals are contributed by the particle grain size fractions of 45–74 μm at site 1 and more than 70% of the concentrations for all heavy metals are contributed by the particle grain size fractions of 45–74 and 74–125 μm at site 2. These results are important for transport of soil-bound heavy metals and pollution control by various remedial options. 相似文献

Potentially toxic metals tracked by the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Program were analysed in sediments from the Svalbard
western coastal zone. These include As and Hg found as contaminants in other Arctic seas as well as other elements (e.g. Pb,
V, Cu, Zn, Cr, Ni). Svalbard shelf sediments contain average values of 12 ppm As, 12 ppm Pb, 56 ppb Hg and 114 ppm V. These
values increase in Isfjorden sediments to 15 ppm As, 28 ppm Pb, 99 ppb Hg and 210 ppm V. Cluster analysis yields a major cluster
that is likely related to clay minerals (Al, K, Ti, Mg) and sorption onto them of transition (Cu, V, Cr, Sc) and other elements
(Pb, Rb). A second significant cluster includes Ca, Sr and plagioclase. The Svalbard western shelf is a natural geochemical
environment. The possible incipient contamination of fjord sediments by As, Pb, Hg and V should be evaluated for possible
links to anthropogenic sources. If links are found, remediation must be used to stop the input and preserve a pristine Svalbard
fjord environment.

Rico, Colorado is a small mountain community that was developed before the turn of the century around and near underground
lead-zinc-silver mines. Today, US regulatory concerns in such communities focus on the metal content, particularly of lead,
in community soils. This study integrates bedrock geology, surficial geology, mineralogy and geochemistry in order to define
the controls on metal distribution in Rico community soils. The principal constituents of concern are As, Pb, and Mn. The
results show that mining-related sources are discrete and localized whereas natural sources, including bedrock (mean Pb content
of 3 500 ppm), colluvium (mean Pb content of 1 410 ppm), and older alluvium (mean Pb content of 744 ppm) are wider spread
and are the principal sources of metals in Rico community soils. Historical mining sites like Rico should be expected to have
significant surficial expressions of mineralized bedrock. In these communities, it is important to accurately define the role
of all metal sources as a foundation for determining environmental liabilities, cleanup guidelines, and health risk assessments.
The application of geology and mineralogy in support of geochemical characterization is necessary to accurately define the
origin and distribution of both anthropogenic and natural metal sources at such sites.

In central Newfoundland (NTS 12A/10, 15, 16, 2H/1), As, Pb, and Zn concentrations in the clay-sized (<0.002 mm) and silt
and clay-sized (<0.063 mm) fractions of till reflect compositional differences among and within rock terranes at scales of
kilometers to tens of kilometers. In those fractions, till derived from volcanic bedrock of Victoria Lake Group (Tulks Hill)
is notably enriched in As (50–>1000 ppm), exceeding levels commonly set for purposes of environmental protection. Near Pb-Zn
mines at Buchans, geochemical variation with depth reflects the dispersal of detritus from mineralized bedrock, and differences
in sediment type and provenance. There, surface sediments are rich in granitic debris derived from the Topsails igneous terrane
5 km north of Buchans and contain low concentrations of trace metals. These sediments are compositionally unrelated to either
Buchans Group volcanic rock or an underlying, older till enriched in sulphide minerals and trace metals. Metal-rich till extending
up to 10 km southwest of Buchans results from combined glacial and debris flow transport related to two distinct geological
events. Trace metals are enriched (two- to fourfold) in the clay-sized fraction of till compared to the silt and clay-sized,
and are associated with Al- and Mg-bearing minerals that preferentially concentrate in the clay fraction. The geochemistry
of the silt and clay-sized fraction can approximate that of the <2-mm fraction. Background variations in till illustrate the
important role of a geological framework to the interpretation of geochemical surveys and the origins of trace metals in the
environment.

The influence of sources of effluents on pollution of bottom sediments of the small Chechło River (23 km long, mean discharge
1.5 m3 s–1) in southern Poland was examined through analysis of heavy metals distribution in transverse and longitudinal cross sections.
Underground waters from a Pb–Zn mine cause very high concentrations of Zn, Cd, and Pb in both fractions investigated (<1 mm
and <0.063 mm) of sediments in the active channel zone, whereas sedimentation of huge amounts of suspended matter discharged
from oil refinery cause concentrations of heavy metals in fine fractions rather uniform in cross sections. In the lowest reach,
with relatively reduced contamination, the highest concentration both in fine and coarse fractions occurs close to the river
banks and in the deepest points of the channel. The lowest concentrations have been found at the points of strongest reworking
and accumulation of sandy material in the riverbed.

The former zinc smelter site ‘de Maatheide’ in Lommel (Belgium) was severely polluted with heavy metals and the pollution spread into the surroundings by rain water leaching and wind transportation. This study focuses on the processes of immobilization and natural attenuation that took place on the site. Three important factors were found. Firstly, the high pH values (pH 7–8) in the topsoil influence the mobility of heavy metals. Secondly, the spodic horizons below the polluted top layer seem to accumulate heavy metals, thereby slowing down their release into the environment. Finally, the glassy phases and iron oxi/hydroxides that are present can encapsulate heavy metals during their formation/recrystallization, thereby immobilizing them. An additional shielding effect results from the reaction rims of goethite around the contaminant phases, which partially inhibit the weathering process and release of contaminants. This shielding effect is an important factor to take into account when modelling contaminant release. 相似文献

Enrichment of heavy metals in paddy crops irrigated by paper mill effluents near Nanjangud, Mysore District, Karnatake, India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M. S. Fazeli F. Khosravan M. Hossini S. Sathyanarayan P. N. Satish 《Environmental Geology》1998,34(4):297-302
Extensive irrigation by the effluents released from a paper mill near Nanjangud have led to the accumulation of heavy metals
in the soil and different parts of the paddy crops. In this paper, the physicochemical characteristics of paper mill effluents
and the accumulation of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, Co, Cd, Cr, and Ni) in the soil and different parts (root, leaf, and seed)
of the paddy crops growing in the irrigated area are described and compared with the soil and paddy crops irrigated by natural
waters (unpolluted). Chemical and biological oxygen demands of wastewater were found to be 437 and 1070 ppm respectively,
which are beyond the tolerance limits set by Indian standards. The total dissolved and suspended solids are 1754 and 900 ppm
respectively. The concentration of heavy metals (except Zn) in the seeds is remarkably less than that in the roots and leaves
of the paddy crops. The heavy metal uptake by plants shows the greatest accumulation of Cu, Cr, Co, and Pb in the roots; Cd
and Ni in the leaves; and Zn in the seeds of rice. The heavy metal content of the soil and their total uptake by paddy roots
has the relation: Pb>Zn>Cu>Cd and Pb>Cu>Zn>Cd. Survival of paddy crops irrigated by polluted waters indicates tolerance to
toxic heavy metals. In conclusion, since in many tropical countries the common diet of people is rice, the accumulation of
toxic heavy metals in rice may lead to health disorders.

Abundant cinnabar (HgS) mineralization is associated with the Pinchi Fault in central British Columbia. Two formerly producing
mercury mines have been developed on this fault: Pinchi and Bralorne Takla. The mercury content of till (a sediment type directly
deposited by glaciers) in the area of this fault is primarily controlled by the occurrence of cinnabar mineralization in bedrock
and the direction of ice flow. Cinnabar-bearing bedrock was eroded by glaciers, transported in the direction of ice flow,
and deposited "down-ice" from its source. An example of such a dispersal train is documented for the Pinchi Mine area where
mercury ore was transported over a distance of 12 km, as measured in the clay-sized fraction (< 0.002 mm) of till, and could
have been transported over 24 km according to heavy mineral concentrates (specific gravity >3.3) of this same sediment. Antimony,
chromium, and nickel dispersal trains were also detected in the region. These data indicate that natural glacial processes
can result in the "mobilization" of metals in the surficial environment, a factor which has to be considered at mine sites
in glaciated terrain, where mine reclamation and remediation measures are now required.

Correlations between heavy metals and organic carbon extracted by dry oxidation procedure in urban roadside soils 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Xue Song Wang 《Environmental Geology》2008,54(2):269-273
The organic fraction in soils has a significant influence on heavy metal transport. In this study, the organic carbon content
was measured by dry oxidation procedure from 21 Xuzhou urban roadside soils to assess the relationships between the concentrations
of heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Zn, and Cr) and the amount of organic carbon. The anthropogenic heavy metals (e.g. Pb, Cu, Zn) were
strongly correlated with organic carbon (denoted by Corg−c) extracted by dry oxidation while natural heavy metal (e.g. Cr) showed no correlation to the Corg−c. The anthropogenic heavy metals were also strongly correlated with the amount of the total carbon. These results show that
the anthropogenic heavy metals are mainly enriched in the organic matter in the Xuzhou urban roadside soils. 相似文献

Due to their balneotherapeutic features, the organic-rich sediments in Makirina Cove are an important source of healing mud.
An environmental geochemistry approach using normalization techniques was applied to evaluate the anthropogenic contribution
of trace metals to sediments used as healing mud. Sediment geochemistry was found to be associated with land-use change and
storm events, as well as with proximity of a road with heavy traffic in the summer months. Local valley topography preferentially
channels lithogenic and pollutant transport to the cove. Concentrations and distribution of trace metals indicate lithogenic
(Ni, Cr, Co) and anthropogenic (Pb, Cu, Zn and Se) contributions to the sediments. The calculation of enrichment factors indicates
a moderate (EFs between 2–3.5) input of anthropogenic Cu and Pb in surficial sediments to a depth of 10 cm. Patients using
the Makirina Cove sediments as healing mud could be to some extent exposed to enhanced uptake of metals from anthropogenic
sources via dermal contact. 相似文献

Bed sediment-associated trace metals in an urban stream, Oahu, Hawaii 总被引:78,自引:0,他引:78
R. A. Sutherland 《Environmental Geology》2000,39(6):611-627
Of the 117 stream and lake systems sampled nationwide, fish from Manoa Stream on Oahu, Hawaii, have consistently shown the
highest Pb concentrations. Therefore a detailed study was conducted to examine total metal contents in bed sediments from
a 5.8-km stretch of Manoa Stream. A total of 123 samples (<63 μm) were examined for 18 elements and 14 samples for 21 elements.
Selected samples were also examined using different leach solutions to examine metal phase associations. All trace metal data,
computations of enrichment ratios and the modified index of geoaccumulation point to mineralogical control for Cr and Ni;
minor anthropogenic contamination for Ba, Cd, Cu, Hg and Zn; and a very strong contamination signal for Pb. Maximum Pb contents
(up to 1080 mg kg−1) were associated with anthropogenic material dumping in minor tributaries, storm sewer sediments and sediments in the “lower”
section of the basin. Proportionally Pb had the highest non-residual component of elements examined; dominantly in the reducible
phase associated with Mn and amorphous Fe oxyhydroxides. The contamination signal was typically lowest in the “undisturbed”
headwater reach of the basin (above 5.1 km) with significant increases throughout the “residential” and “commercial-institutional”
zones of the mid-basin. The spatial pattern of bed sediment contamination and evidence from storm sewer-outlet sediments strongly
indicates that Pb, and to a lesser degree some other metals, is still being transported to the stream and the primary agent
is soil erosion and transport of metals sorbed to sediments. The primary source of sediment-associated metals is considered
to be the automobile, though other minor sources can not be ruled out.

Human impacts in Antarctica: trace-element geochemistry of freshwater lakes in the Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Fresh water lakes are found in basement rock basins in the Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica, during the summer months. These
lakes constitute a relatively simple natural laboratory to investigate the effects of recent and well-documented anthropogenic
impact on a “pristine” environment. Larsemann Hills freshwaters have extremely low salinity (typically <1‰), and contain very
low concentrations of trace elements of environmental significance such as Pb, U, and Zn. Typical Pb concentrations range
from less than 5 ppt to 250 ppt. Although trace metal concentrations appear to be higher in lakes situated in the vicinity
of stations, they are consistently lower (by several orders of magnitude, for some elements) than Standard International Drinking
Water Guidelines. The chemistry of the lake waters is dominated by sea-spray input. Consequently, it is primarily a function
of geographical factors, such as distance from the shore and exposure to winds. Shallow-level groundwater and surface water
also contribute to the lake chemistry. No evidence was found for contamination from global air circulation. Although contamination
resulting from activities at the research stations is generally near or below detection levels, very low levels of trace metal
anthropogenic contamination were found in the vicinity of some research stations.

内海湾底泥沉积物的环境质量状况与水生生物的生存和人体健康关系密切。在广东汕头市内海湾两岸23个点位采集了表层(0~20 cm)和深层(100~120 cm)底泥沉积物样品46件,对其pH值和Cd、Hg、As、Pb、Cr、Cu、Zn计7项重金属及K含量进行测试分析,调查底泥中这些重金属的含量特征,并参照农用地水田土壤污染风险管控标准对重金属环境污染质量进行评价。结果表明汕头内海湾底泥沉积物的pH介于7.00~8.82之间,平均值为7.83,在46件样品中41件样品的pH值大于7.5。内海湾底泥中7项重金属元素的含量均明显低于环境污染风险管制值,即对该区底泥重金属环境污染不需要管制。Cd、As、Pb、Cr这4项重金属含量均低于污染风险筛选值,其污染风险可以忽略。2件表层样品的Hg含量值高于污染风险筛选值,18件样品的Cu和Zn含量值高于污染风险筛选值,因此建议对底泥中Cu、Zn、Hg含量进行环境质量监测。K含量介于0.70%~2.59%,平均值为1.54%。基于表层底泥和深层底泥元素含量对比分析,认为该区Hg污染来源应为人为源;Cu、Zn的污染来源一部分为人为源,另一部分可能为人为源、自然源或二者的混合源。 相似文献

Distribution of Cd,Pb, Zn and Cu and their chemical speciations in soils from a peri-smelter area in northeast China 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An exploratory study on soil contamination of heavy metals was carried out surrounding Huludao zinc smelter in Liaoning province,
China. The distribution of total heavy metals and their chemical speciations were investigated. The correlations between heavy
metal speciations and soil pH values in corresponding sites were also analyzed. In general, Cd, Zn, Pb, Cu and As presented
a significant contamination in the area near the smelter, comparied with Environmental Quality Standards for Soils in China.
The geoaccumulation index showed the degree of contamination: Cd > Zn > Pb > Cu > As. There was no obvious pollution of Cr
and Ni in the studied area. The speciation analysis showed that the dominant fraction of Cd and Zn was the acid soluble fraction,
and the second was the residual fraction. Pb was mostly associated with the residual fraction, which constituted more than
50% of total concentration in all samples. Cu in residual fraction accounted for a high percentage (40–80%) of total concentration,
and the proportion of Cu in the oxidizable fraction is higher than that of other metals. The distribution pattern of Pb and
Zn was obviously affected by soil pH. It seemed that Pb and Zn content in acid solution fraction increased with increasing
soil pH values, while Cd content in acid soluble fraction accounted for more proportion in neutral and alkaline groups than
acidic one. The fraction distribution patterns of Cu in three pH groups were very similar and independent of soil pH values.
And the residual fraction of Cu took a predominant part (50%) of the total content. 相似文献

Geochemical works were conducted on anthropogenically effective lithologic unit exposing along the Susanoglu coast in Mersin,
Turkey. For this purpose, beach sand sediments from 33 stations were collected and heavy metal and oxide concentrations were
analyzed. To determine the source of heavy metals (natural and anthropogenic), simple and multivariate statistical analyses
were applied. According to factor analysis, three factors were determined. The first factor consists of SiO2, Al2O3, Na2O, K2O, TiO2, Cr, Ni, Cu and Mo and total variance is explained with 27.502% and expressed as “natural process factor”. These elements (Cr, Ni, Cu, Mo) are closely associated with geogenic materials and came from same sources of ultrabasic
rocks (ophiolite). The second factor consists of CaO, MgO, TiO2, MnO, Ni, Pb, Zn and W and total variance is explained with 21.505% and expressed as “anthropogenic factor”. These elements (Pb, Zn, Cd, V, W) are anthropogenic and are mainly due to the effluent or industrial input/activities and
came from different sources of pollution in the study area. The third factor consists of Pb, Cd and Sb and total variance
is explained with 9.748% and expressed as “intermediate factor”. The factor analysis and the cluster analysis are in support of each other. Cr, Ni, Co, Cd, Hg and Mo concentrations are
greater than Turkish acceptable values and they show toxic effect. Al, Cu, Pb, Cd and Mo concentrations in beach sand deposits
in the Susanoglu coast are found as 1.44, 1.26, 1.21, 1.02 and 1.04 mg/kg and higher than those in Kızkalesi beach sands.
However, all other heavy metal contents are determined in low concentrations. 相似文献

The Ganga Plain is one of the most densely populated regions and one of the largest groundwater repositories of the Earth.
For several decades, the drainage basin of the Ganga Plain has been used for the disposal of domestic and industrial wastes
which has adversely affected the quality of water, sediments and agricultural soils of the plain. The concentrations of Al,
Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sn, Zn and organic carbon were determined in river sediments and soils of the Ganga Plain
in the Kanpur-Unnao industrial region in 1994 and 1995 (pre-monsoon period of April–May). High contents (maximum values) of
C-org (12.0 wt. %), Cr (3.40 wt. %), Sn (1.92 wt. %), Zn (4000 mg/kg), Pb (646 mg/kg), Cu (408 mg/kg), Ni (502 mg/kg) and
Cd (9.8 mg/kg) in sediments (<20 μm fraction); and C-org (5.9 wt. %), Cr (2.16 wt. %), Sn (1.21 wt %), Zn (975 mg/kg) and
Ni (482 mg/kg) in soils (<20 μm) in the pre-monsoon period of 1994 were found. From 1994 to 1995 the contents of Fe and Sn
in sediments increase whereas those of C-org, Cd, Cu, Ni and Zn decrease. Considering the analytical errors, Al, Co, Cr, Mn
and Pb do not show any change in their concentrations. In soils, the contents of Cd, Fe and Sn increase whereas those of Ni
decrease from 1994 to 1995. Aluminium, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Pb and Zn do not show any change in their concentrations from 1994
to 1995. About 90% of the contents of Cd, Cr and Sn; 50–75% of C-org, Cu and Zn; and 25% of Co, Ni and Pb in sediments are
derived from the anthropogenic input in relation to the natural background values, whereas in soils this is the case for about
90% of Cr and Sn; about 75% of Cd; and about 25% of C-org, Cu, Ni and Zn. The sediments of the study area show enrichment
factors of 23.6 for Cr, 14.7 for Cd, 12.2 for Sn, 3.6 for C-org, 3.2 for Zn, 2.6 for Cu and 1.6 for Ni. The soils are enriched
with factors of 10.7 for Cr, 9.0 for Sn, 3.6 for Cd, 1.8 for Ni and 1.5 for Cu and Zn, respectively.

Accumulation and sources of heavy metals in urban topsoils: a case study from the city of Xuzhou, China 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The knowledge of the variability, the anthropogenic versus natural origin and corresponding environmental risk for potentially harmful elements in urban topsoils is of importance to assess human impact. The aims of the present study were: (1) to assess the distribution of heavy metals (Sn, Li, Ga, Ba, Fe, Mn, Co, Be, Ti, Al, Hg, Cr, Sb, As, Bi, Pd, Pt, Au, Ni, Cd, Zn, Cu, Pb, Se, Mo, Sc and Ag) in urban environment; (2) to discriminate natural and anthropogenic contributions; and (3) to identify possible sources of pollution. Multivariate statistic approaches (principal component analysis and cluster analysis) were adopted for data treatment, allowing the identification of three main factors controlling the heavy metal variability in Xuzhou urban topsoils. Results demonstrate that Hg, Cr, Sb, As, Bi, Pd, Pt, Au, Ni, Cd, Br, Zn, Cu, S, Pb, Se, Mo, Sc and Ag could be inferred to be tracers of anthropogenic pollution, whereas Al, Ti, Ga, Li, V, Co, Pt, Mn and Be were interpreted to be mainly inherited from parent materials. Iron, Ba, Sn, Pd and Br were interpreted to be affected by mixed sources. 相似文献
