A reliable evaluation of metal contents in soils, under both natural and anthropogenic conditions, is a fundamental issue. In this work, we show our methodology applied to the case study of the western Emilia-Romagna plain in determining the pedogeochemical contents of heavy metals and their anomalies. In this context, where natural values of some metals (Cr and Ni) for several soil types exceed the threshold limits indicated by the law, the application of an adequate methodology in geochemical anomalies evaluation assumes a significant role.

Abstract

A reliable evaluation of metal contents in soils, under both natural and anthropogenic conditions, is a fundamental issue. In this work, we show our methodology applied to the case study of the western Emilia-Romagna plain in determining the pedogeochemical contents of heavy metals and their anomalies. In this context, where natural values of some metals (Cr and Ni) for several soil types exceed the threshold limits indicated by the law, the application of an adequate methodology in geochemical anomalies evaluation assumes a significant role.
