Özet
Soil pollution with heavy metals (HMs) has become an increasingly serious environmental concern and needs assessment of ecological and human health risks, especially in an urban area. For this purpose, the contents of eight HMs (As, Mn, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in surface (0–5 cm) soil samples from 32 urban sites in the North area of Cyprus were examined using EDXRF spectrometer analysis. The average concentrations for As, Mn, Ni, Pb Cr, Cu, Hg, and Zn in soil samples were 4.7, 950.6, 230.5, 48.2, 1.8, 186.8, 15.1, and 87.5 mg/kg, respectively. The results showed that the mean concentrations of the HMs in the soil samples followed the order Mn > Cr > Ni > Zn > Cu > Pb > As > Hg, respectively. The mean geo-accumulation index (Igeo) of Hg was found in strong/extreme contamination. The potential ecological risk index (PERI) mean value was calculated in moderate ecological risk. Also, health risks …
