Anthropogenic Pb contribution in soils of Southeast China estimated by Pb isotopic ratios
Isotopic ratios were used to identify the source of Lead (Pb) contamination in rural soils from Southeast China. Enrichment of Pb in surface soils was detected from three sampling locations, with the 206Pb/207Pb ratio indicating recent anthropogenic ...
