Geochemical background data are used to distinguish between the sources of heavy metal
(natural or anthropogenic) and to categorize the level of heavy metal pollution. In this study …

Heavy metals are constantly emitted into the environment and pose a major threat to human
health, particularly in urban areas. The threat is linked to the presence of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb …

Components and quantity of street dust are environmental pollution indicators especially in
big cities. Street dust is generally composed of car exhaust gas originated particles and wind …

In this study, a novel in situ sampling method was utilized to investigate the concentrations of
trace metals and Pb isotope compositions among different particle size fractions in soil dust …

Air pollution has been considered one of the major environmental challenges because of its
effect on ecosystems and human health. The concentration levels and sources of heavy …

To analyze the spatial distribution patterns, risks, and sources of heavy metals (As, Cd, Cr,
Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn, Fe), 36 road dust samples were collected from an urbanized area of …

The present work reports pollution level and spatial distribution of heavy metals (HMs) ie
Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Lead (Pb), Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni) …

This study reports the spatial distribution pattern and degree of heavy metal pollution (Cd,
Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Mn, Be, Co, Zn and U) in 169 urban road dust samples from urban area of …

To investigate the differences in characteristics of heavy metals associated with different
levels of ambient air quality, we collected road dust samples from Beihai (BH) and Shanghai …

Over the last several decades, there has been increased attention on the heavy metal
contamination associated with highways because of the associated health hazards and …
