- Abstract:
-
In order to understand the pollution status of soil heavy metal in different function areas in Baotou, we analyzed the heavy metal in the surface soil,and used the geoaccumulation index, the Nemerow Indices and the potential ecological risk to estimate pollution levels. The result shows that the heavy metals such asPb,Zn,Cu and Cd are above the background value of soil in Baotou except for Cr. The geoaccumulation index shows that the pollution status of Pb and Cd in the soil of the urban area is in middle level pollution,the others are in the mild contamination or pollution-free. The Nemerow Indices displayed in industrial area, commercial area and science or education area are in severe pollution, residential areas and urban green space belong to the moderate pollution. Soils in Baotou City as a whole are at the ‘medium’ the potential ecological risk level,to which should be paid the attention by relevant departments.
