“…The impact from the growing area must be considered [17], which depends on the local climatic conditions, the soil composition and the respective pollution [18]. Furthermore, characteristics of the tree, for instance its age [19], species and/or hybridisation [20] determine the needle metal contents. Conversely, soil properties—such as acidity—are changed by the pine trees themselves, which subsequently has an impact on the bioavailability and root uptake of certain metals [21].…”

Pine needles are widely used as bio-indicators due to their worldwide distribution and the ease of sample collection. In contrast to deciduous trees, conifers offer the possibility of monitoring long-term exposure through older needles. Pinus halepensis Miller is a pine species native to the Mediterranean region, which has been used for restoration activities in arid and semiarid areas leading to vast spatial expansion. Needles from pine trees collected in the southeastern to northwestern extension of Croatia’s coastal area at twelve sampling sites were analysed for twenty-one metals and metalloids. Statistical evaluation of the obtained data revealed significant differences for Al, As, B, Ba, Ca, Cr, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Se, and Sr between the different regions. Needles from trees growing on islands did not show elevated levels of Mg and/or Na as a result of the sea spray influence. The differences in metal accumulation are supposed to be linked to the environmental conditions at the respective sampling site, since the species was the same everywhere. By comparing the elemental contents of the soil those of with needles, it can be clearly seen, that the root as well as the foliar uptake contribute to the final amount.

“…Apart from growing area (Lehndorff and Schwark 2010), determined by soil composition as well as pollution impact (Serbula et al 2013), the needle metal concentrations depend on climatic conditions and age of the tree (Varnagiryte-Kabasinskiene et al 2014). Also hybridisation leads to variances in the accumulation behaviour (Juranović-Cindrić et al 2018). Furthermore, the pine trees themselves influence the soil properties, especially its acidity which has an impact on the bioavailability of manganese and iron for the root system (Parzych et al 2017).…”

“…Studies conducted by Juranović-Cindrić et al [64] confirm the physiological changes of needles by demonstrating the relationship between mineral deficiency in soils and advanced alkalisation. Studies carried out by Barga-Wiecławska et al [21] in the Białe Zagłębie confirm the changes in the soil profile towards alkalisation resulting from more than forty-year-old emission of cement-lime dust.…”

Background: This article presents the results of research on the air quality which has been under the anthropogenic impact of the cement and lime industry in the Świętokrzyskie Mountains for many years. Research using geo-and bio-indicators was carried out at fixed measuring points in the years 2016-2018. Results: Hypogymnia physodes (L.) Nyl. and two-year old Scots pine needles Pinus silvestris L. were used for bioindication research. Physico-chemical properties of precipitation were developed on the basis of research conducted at the Jan Kochanowski University's field research station located on the Malik. Increased pH and specific electrolytic conductivity (EC) of precipitation, as well as variable concentrations of heavy metals throughout a year were shown. Conslusions: Analysis of the chemical properties of transplanted lichens and pine needles confirmed the presence of elements from the cement and lime industry sector located in the Białe Zagłębie. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the needles' surface revealed morphological changes resulting from pollution of stoma opening and closing by small solid particles of anthropogenic origins, disturbing a gas exchange.
