Influence of atmospheric transportation of heavy metals on their values in depositional environments of West Lithuania
Alfredas RADZEVIČIUS, Valentinas KADŪNAS

High background values and abundant anomalies of Ag, Pb, Zn and Sn are established in the topsoil of West Lithuania. The highered values of heavy metals in topsoil may be explained by the influence of regional and transregional atmospheric transportation of heavy metals. The study results of snow mineral dust in winters of 1995–1996 and 2002–2003 have emphasized a distinct enrichment by heavy metals of atmospherically transportable dust in this region as compared to others.

Keywords: topsoil, snow dust, heavy metals, background values, Lithuania
