“…It seems that highest that western part of this district is alluvial of the Velika Morava, which sediment consists partly of the material brought by the western tributaries from the surrounding terrains consisting of basic and ultrabasic rocks. High contents of these elements are reported in previous research (Jakovljević et al, 1997;Mrvić et al, 2009). In these districts there are very significant correlation between these elements (R Cr-Ni = 0.554; R Pb-Ni = 0.797; R Pb-Cr = 0.798), which may indicate their common origin.…”

“…Table 3 summarizes the mean concentration of total metals in the examined soils obtained from the average of three measurements. Moreover, the table summarizes the minimum, maximum, mean values, and standard deviation and, for comparison, their typical literature ranges, their most common values in soils, and their values in unpolluted soils (Crockett 1998;Breckenridge and Crockett 1998;Jakovljevic et al 1997). As, Hg, and Sb concentrations are not reported in Table 3 because throughout the study, they were less than the detection limits of the techniques utilized equal to 0.1, 0.1, and 0.2 mg kg −1 , respectively.…”

The aim of this paper is to evaluate total and bioavailable concentration of heavy metals in agricultural soils in order to estimate their distribution, to identify the possible correlations among toxic elements and the pollution sources, to distinguish the samples in relation to sampling site or to sampling depth, and to evaluate the available fraction providing information about the risky for plants. In particular, we reinvestigated total concentrations of As, Be, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, V, and Zn and available concentrations of As, Be, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sb, and Zn in soil from Apulia (Southern Italy). Analytical results showed that total concentrations, for all soils, are in the range permitted by regulations in force in Italy, but some soils evidence slight enrichment of Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, and Zn. All the heavy metals in the available fraction were below the detection limits of the analytical techniques used except Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn.

Summary:The primary objective of the present study was to point out different approaches to background limits assessment. The content of selected trace elements is relatively low, and elements have right-skewed asymmetrical distribution, with high dispersion. Background for Cr and Ni (60 mg kg -1 ) which are obtained by graphical methods cumulative probability plot (CDF) and box-plot are similar. Natural and log-transform data are used for empirical methods. Results from antilogarithmic values are signifi cantly higher than from natural ones. Background limits obtained by empirical methods are different. Maps show that the largest part of territory has a relatively low concentration of investigated elements, whose background limits calculated by [Median+2MAD] methods are the most suitable. On the part of area with elevated elements content, where natural origin of elements had previously been proven, background limits are determined with box-plot method.
