“…On the other hand, these values are below the average andesitic crust (Taylor and McLennan 1995). This interpretation is consistent with Iñigo et al (2011) that observed in the soils of La Rioja, Spain mean values of Mn (738.2 mg kg -1 ) on the surface and 550.7 mg kg -1 in depth, which suggests an origin from atmospheric deposition. However, the Ni concentrations have an opposite behavior where the mean values are 33.30 mg kg -1 on the surface and 40.49 mg kg -1 in depth, which suggests a lithogenic source.…”

Geochemical features of aerosols in Santiago de Chile from time series analysis

Santiago, the capital of Chile, suffers from high air pollution levels, especially during winter. An extensive particulate matter (PM) monitoring and analysis program was conducted to quantify elemental concentrations of PM. Size-resolved PM samples (PM 2.5 and PM 10-2.5) from the La Paz and Las Condes stations in Santiago (2004-2005) were analyzed using ICP-MS. Most trace element concentrations (Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, V, Sb, Pb and As) were higher during winter than during summer and were also higher at the La Paz station than at the Las Condes station. During the highest pollution events, As concentrations in PM 2.5 (16 ng m-3) exceeded the annual average standard value (6 ng m-3). A 10-year time series showed decreasing Pb and As concentrations and slightly increasing Zn, Cu and Mn concentrations. Concentrations of Cr and Ni remained relatively constant. The implementation of new public policies in 1998 may explain the decreasing concentrations of Pb and As. Enrichment factor (EF) calculations identified two principal groups: elements with EF \ 10

“…Furthermore, the results derived from these methods can verify each other (Yalcin and Ilhan, 2008). Recently, there were many examples of multivariate analysis in sources identification of heavy metals (Facchinelli et al, 2001;Inigo et al, 2011;Boruvka et al, 2005;Zhang, 2006;Imperato et al, 2003;Sajn et al, 2011).…”

With rapid economic and social development, soil contamination arising from heavy metals has become a serious problem in many parts of China. We collected a total of 445 samples (0-20 cm) at the nodes of a 2 km×2 km grid in surface soils of Rizhao city, and analyzed sources and risk pattern of 10 heavy metals (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn). The combination of Multivariate statistics analysis and Geostatistical methods was applied to identify the sources and hazardous risk of heavy metals in soils. The result indicated that Cr, Ni, Co, Mn, Cu, and As were mainly controlled by parent materials and came from natural sources. Cd and Hg originated from anthropogenic sources. Pb and Zn, belonging to different groups in multivariate analysis, were associated with joint effect of parent materials and human inputs. Ordinary Kriging and Indicator Kriging suggested that single element and elements association from the same principal components had similar spatial distribution. Through comprehensive assessment on all elements, we also found the high risk areas were located in the populated urban areas and western study area, which could be attributed to the higher geological background in the western part and strong human interference in the eastern part.

“…Ni DTPA was on average about 5% of Ni T (Figure and Table ). Both the range of values of Ni DTPA and of F DTPA agree with the few published data of Ni in noncontaminated soils (Kara et al ., ; Iñigo et al ., ) although much larger fractions of extractable Ni are found in sludge‐amended soils (Pardo et al ., ). Total Ni and available Ni in soils were correlated in vegetable soils and in paddy soils, but not for the full data set.…”

Nickel (Ni), an essential micronutrient, is toxic to plants and animals at elevated levels. Fewer data are available on the dynamics of Ni than for trace metals such as Cu and Zn. Dietary intake is the major source of Ni, but almost no information is available on dietary intake for Asian populations whose diet contains much less animal products and processed foods than in Western countries. In south‐eastern China, most food is grown on peri‐urban agricultural land and thus, food crops from these areas should be the major source of dietary Ni. A large‐scale survey of Ni in soils and edible crops, including 515 sites and 24 crop species from 10 crop groups, was conducted in Fujian Province, SE China, to assess Ni intake for a typical SE Asian diet. Correlation, principal component analysis (PCA) and data mining were used to identify soil and plant factors that determine Ni accumulation in crops. Both soil Ni content and plant species contributed to Ni accumulation. Crop Ni (Nicrop) was positively correlated with soil Ni DTPA‐extractible (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) (NiDTPA) for many crops. PCA did not identify strong relations between soil‐to‐crop transfer factors and any soil properties. Stepwise linear correlations found positive correlations between Nicrop and NiDTPA; however, relationships between Nicrop and both silt content and pH varied between crops. Dietary intake of foods containing mean Ni content could lead to health risks, especially for children. It was concluded that sandy soils, rich in organic matter with a large Ni content, are unsuitable for the production of rice and legumes.
