Rivers can be sinks for potential toxic elements (PTEs) inputted in their systems by both
natural and anthropic processes. Many indices have been proposed to assess the …

The aim of this work was to show how to construct maps of anthropogenic contamination of
agricultural soils in Czech Republic by risk elements. The geochemical datasets for this work …

The increasing population in urban areas in the last decades requires an effort to
