The abundances of selected elements in different environmental compartments, namely soil, honey, and bee pollen, was determined in this study. For that purpose, sixteen soil and honey samples, and nine pollen samples were taken in the region of Mitrovica, Kosovo. The concentration of elements was measured by ICP-AES and ICP-MS. Pollution level concentrations of Pb, Zn, As, and Cd were observed in soil. The level of soil pollution was estimated by calculating pollution indices. Pb was also observed at high concentrations in honey, as was Cd and Pb in pollen. Pearson’s correlation coefficients revealed mostly weak and moderate correlations of the concentrations of the eight selected elements among the soil, honey, and pollen samples. Several groups of elements with geogenic and anthropogenic origin were identified by hierarchical cluster analysis. The concentrations of selected heavy metals for soil and honey were compared to those in neighboring countries, and those for pollen with samples from Turkey, Serbia, and Jordan.

“…The following soil properties were determined: particle size fractions by pipet analysis , Burt R, 2011), organic carbon content by bichromate oxidation method according to IV Tyurin, exchangeable bases by complexometric method, cation exchange capacity by ammonium acetate method, KCl pH and pH of aqueous suspension by potentiometric method (Vorobeva LA, 2006; Burt R, 2011). The total content of Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb was determined by X-ray fluorescence analysis using a spectrometer Spectroscan MAX-GV "Spectron" (Russia), and the content of mobile forms extracted from the soil by ammonium acetate buffer (Motuzova GV et al, 2014) was determined by atomic absorption using a spectrometer NOVAA300 "Analytik Jena" (Germany). Clarkes of concentration and Clarkes of dispersion of elements in the studied soils were calculated relative to the clarke of elements in the soils according to AP Vinogradov (1957).…”

Содержание подвижных форм Mn в почвах зависит от количества органического вещества. В слабощелочных горизонтах серогумусовой остаточно-карбонатной почвы происходит увеличение содержания подвижных форм Ni и Mn, в кислых горизонтах бурозёма и дерново-буро-подзолистой почвы-подвижного Fe. Ключевые слова: микроэлементы; элементный состав почв; бурозём типичный; дерново-буро-подзолистая почва; ржавозём типичный; серогумусовая остаточно-карбонатная почва. Введение В связи с возрастающими масштабами воздействия человека на почвенный покров все более актуальным становится вопрос охраны почв. Важную роль в этом играют особо охраняемые природные территории (ООПТ).

The article presents a comparative analysis of the dynamics of geochemical indicators of natural and industrially transformed mid-mountain and high-mountain landscapes of the Western Caucasus. The high stability of geochemical processes for high-altitude geobotanical zones of subalpine and alpine meadows was established. The contents of plumbum (Pb) and cuprum (Cu) in soils of high-altitude geobotanical zones of the Teberda Nature Reserve and in soils of similar industrially transformed high-altitude geobotanical zones of Gondaray region were compared. The research showed a significant excess of the concentration of elements in the soils of high-altitude geobotanical zones of coniferous forests and the ecotone of the upper boundary of the forest of Gondaray region. Keywords-natural geosystem, partial geosystem, mid-mountain and high mountain landscapes, dynamics and evolution of geosystems, transformation of geosystems, high-altitude geobotanical zone, geochemical approach.
