Lead isotope composition and risk elements distribution in urban soils of historically different cities Ostrava and Prague, the Czech Republic
Original language description
The impact of intensive industry and other human activities on urban soil pollution and the origin of these pollutants were studied in industrial Ostrava and residential Prague. The concentrations of fourteen risk elements and lead isotopic compositionswere assessed in soil samples of urban parks. Prague was characterised by elevated concentrations of As (median 22 mg.kg(-1)), Se (0.7 mg. kg(-1)), Cu (50 mg.kg(-1)), Pb (67 mg.kg(-1)) and Ni (27 mg.kg(-1)), while Ostrava by Cd (median 0.8 mg. kg(-1)), Zn (152 mg.kg(-1)), Mn (828 mg.kg(-1)) and Cr (43 mg.kg(-1)), where Cd reached on average two times higher values compared to Prague parks. Significantly higher concentrations of risk elements were found in both cities in sites under tree crowns comparedto open areas. A more considerable trend was observed in Ostrava, a city affected by strong airborne deposition. Differences in Pb,isotopic composition between both cities were proven despite their having similar values. Lower (206)pb/,(2
