Abstract

In order to study the influence of motor vehicles on a local soil environment, depth profiles of elemental concentration of urban roadside soil were investigated by means of thick-target PIXE analysis. For comparison, we analyzed the soil sampled in a university campus with very low traffic intensity. From the measured depth profiles, it was found that the roadside surface layers up to the depth of approximately 5 cm from the ground level are highly polluted by S and Zn. According to cluster analysis this pollution can be attributed to the deposition of tire dust due to the heavy vehicular traffic volumes on the highways.
