“…The patterns in street dust properties with respect to land use and road type were not distinct. The proximity of roads to urban green areas and industrial clusters, as well as the frequency of cleaning and washing of roads, are likely to be important factors in spatial heterogeneity, as was found for Moscow (Kasimov et al 2019a(Kasimov et al , 2020.…”

“…Although geochemical features of street dust with respect to organic and inorganic contaminants were examined for a large number of urban environments worldwide, few studies have focused on the combined assessment of both PTEs and PAHs. In Russia, detailed studies on the geochemistry of urban street dust were performed for the largest city in the country, Moscow (Vlasov et al 2015;Kasimov et al 2019aKasimov et al , 2020 and for some resort areas (Kasimov et al 2019b). For the majority of urban environments in the Asian part of the country, studies on the geochemistry of street dust have not been conducted, despite the high level of urbanization and the high volume of automobile traffic.…”

This study investigated levels and sources of pollution and potential health risks associated with potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in urban street dust collected from Tyumen city, a large transport centre with one of the highest motorization rates in Russia. Twenty street dust samples were collected from four grades of roads in five different land use areas.Research methods included measurements of physical and chemical properties of street dust, concentrations of 18 PTEs using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, 12 PAHs using high-performance liquid chromatography, and statistical analysis of the data. Concentrations of Ni, Cr, Sb, and Mo, as well as medium and high molecular weight PAHs in urban street dust, were notably higher than in soils within the city, which indicates that transport is the main source of these elements. Concentrations of Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Mn, and As in street dust of Tyumen were lower compared to many large cities, while Cr, Ni, and Co were higher. Concentrations of PAH were comparable to other large nonindustrial cities. Total contamination of street dust by both PTEs and PAHs showed more robust relationships with the number of roadway lanes rather than land use. The estimated carcinogenic risks were low in 70% of samples and medium in 30% of samples. Noncarcinogenic risks were attributed to exposure to Co, Ni, V, and As. The total noncarcinogenic risk for adults was found to be negligible, while the risk was found to be moderate for children.

“…Input of a large group of MMs as a result of blowing and splashing mud material from the surface of roads is indicated by the formation of associations of suspended Ni-Al-Mg-Ti-Ca-Sr-Mn-Co-W-K-Rb-Ba-Ni-Fe-V and dissolved Ti-Fe-Pb-Al-Sn-Bi-W. Thus, Al, Ti, Fe, Mn, Rb, and K come predominantly with soil particles upon blowing [118][119][120]; Na, Ca, Mg, and Sr-with construction dust and large DISs particles; W, Sn, Bi, Co, Ni, Ba, Pb, and Ti-with various size fractions of road dust [67,95,119,[121][122][123][124][125].…”

Dissolved and Suspended Forms of Metals and Metalloids in Snow Cover of Megacity: Partitioning and Deposition Rates in Western Moscow

et al. 2020

Concentrations and ratio of dissolved and suspended forms of metals and metalloids (MMs) in snow cover and their deposition rates from the atmosphere in the western part of Moscow were studied. Forms of MMs were separated using a filter with pore diameter of 0.45 μm; their concentrations were measured by ICP-MS and ICP-AES methods. Anthropogenic impact in Moscow caused a significant increase in dust load (2–7 times), concentration of solid particles in snow cover (2–5 times), and mineralization of snow meltwater (5–18 times) compared to the background level. Urban snow contains Sn, Ti, Bi, Al, W, Fe, Pb, V, Cr, Rb, Mo, Mn, As, Co, Cu, Ba, Sb, Mg mainly in suspended form, and Ca and Na in dissolved form. The role of suspended MMs in the city significantly increases compared to the background region due to high dust load, usage of de-icing salts, and the change of acidic background conditions to alkaline ones. Anthropogenic emissions are the main sources of suspended Ca, W, Co, V, Sr, Ti, Mg, Na, Mo, Zn, Fe, Sb, and Cu in the snow cover of traffic zone. These elements’ concentrations in roadside snow cover exceed the background values more than 25 times. The highest concentrations and deposition rates of MMs in the snow of Moscow are localized near the large and medium roads.

“…Soil samples were taken and dried in an oven at 60 °C for 3 days, and then crushed and sieved through a 1 mm polyethylene sieve to remove stones, coarse materials, and other debris. Urban soils are typically characterized by increased concentrations of metal(loid)s (Yusupov et al 2017;Kasimov et al 2019;Skugoreva et al 2019;Krupnova et al 2020b). Foliar absorption of metal(loid)s through the leaf plates occurs in addition to through the roots (Kasimov et al 2019;Skugoreva et al 2019;Krupnova et al 2020b;Belguidoum et al 2020;Medvedeva et al 2021;Morton-Bermea et al 2021).…”

Apple trees as a possible monitor and phytoremediator of urban and industrial areas in Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation

Abstract. Krupnova TG, Naumova NL, Rakova OV, Burmistrova OM, Burmistrov EA. 2021. Apple trees as a possible monitor and phytoremediator of urban and industrial areas in Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation. Biodiversitas 22: 2824-2828. Apple trees are cultivated worldwide and are the most widely grown fruit crops in the South Ural region. This study examines the suitability of apple trees for biomonitoring and phytoremediation. We collected the leaves and fruits of the apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) trees and the surrounding soil from three areas in Chelyabinsk, a typical Russian industrial city. The leaves, fruits and soils were analyzed for metal(loid) content (As, B, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ga, In, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se, Sn, Sr, and Zn). The results were obtained using mass spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). We found a response in the apple tree defense system to the action of heavy metals in the synthesis of biologically active substances. The data gave information about the environmental state of soils collected in the zones of influence of metallurgical industrial enterprises. However, the trees did not assimilate or tolerate high concentrations of metal(loid)s in the leaves and they cannot be recommended for phytoremediation.
