Presentation Transcript

  1. Soil processes and trace metals • Have some ideas about metal concentrations in soils • Get familiar with FDEP Soil Cleanup Target Levels • Factors controlling metal behaviors in soils

  2. Concentrations of trace elements in soils • Content of various elements in lithosphere and soils(Lindsay, W. L. 1979. Chemical equilibria in soils. New York, NY, John Wiley & Sons) • Ranges and means of concentrations of trace elements in soils calculated on the world scale(Kabata-Pendias, A. and H. Pendias 1992. Trace elements in soils and plants. Boca Raton, FL, CRC Press.)

  4. JC lecture Plot of the atmospheric enrichment factor (AEF) for some metals where AEF = log (X atm/Al atm)/(X rocks/A1 rocks), versus the boiling points of their oxides

  9. Fig. 15. Trace elements in soils compared to their abundance in the lithosphere. Open circles= mean in lithosphere; Solid circles= mean in topsoils; Vertical lines=Soil range • Trace elements < 1,000 ppm • Some are enriched • Concentrations vary Kabata-Pendias and Pendias (1992)

  10. EF< 0.5 • significant depletion • EF= 0.5-2no change • EF>2-10 • some enrichment • EF>10 • strong enrichment Sposito, 1989
