Abstract:
A study of U, Th and Sr distribution in soils and conifers was realized at the Crucea area (northern Romania). The increased concentration of U and Th in the surfaced soils is related to dispersion of those elements from wastes. The bioavailability of the metals from the soil (EDTA extraction) decrease in the following order: Th(21,91%) > U(6,20%) > Sr(3,01%). |
