Contents Notes
Measured metals concentrations along transects starting at the edges of roads. Measured total and extractable (dilute hydrochloric acid extraction) concentrations of aluminum, calcium, chromium, copper, iron, manganese, nickel, lead, and zinc. Total concentrations were compared to "background" levels for the same elements. Copper levels near the road were significantly higher than background. Copper concentration decreased relatively quickly with distance from road (concentrations similar to background by about 10 meters from road edge).
