GUIDELINE VALUES FOR POTENTIALLY TOXIC METALS IN SOILS WITH GEOGENIC ENRICHMENT: WHY CONSIDER PARENT MATERIAL?

Soils derived from serpentinites exhibit unique geochemical characteristics resulting from their ultramafic origin and are naturally enriched in potentially toxic metals, particularly nickel (Ni) and chromium (Cr).

Identification and allocation of heavy metal pollution sources in groundwater near Ladjevci airport using positive matrix factorization receptor model

This study investigated sources of heavy metal pollution in groundwater near Ladjevci airport in Serbia. Groundwater was collected from 42 monitoring wells and analyzed for nine heavy metals (As, Cd, Pb, Cr, Cu, Ni, Sb, Zn, and Hg).
