Concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) (Al, As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and
Zn) were measured in topsoil samples collected from parks in the cities of Salzburg (Austria),
Thessaloniki (Greece), and Belgrade (Serbia) in order to assess the distribution of PTEs in the urban
environment, discriminate natural (lithogenic) and anthropogenic contributions, identify possible
sources of pollution, and compare levels of pollution between the cities. An assessment of the
health risks caused by exposure to PTEs through different pathways was also conducted. The
study revealed that, with the exception of Pb in Salzburg, levels of PTEs in the soils in polluted
urban parks were higher than in unpolluted ones, but still lower than those recorded in other
European soils. Results of sequential analyses showed that Al, Cr, and Ni were found in residual
phases, proving their predominantly lithogenic origin and their low mobility. In contrast, the
influence of anthropogenic factors on C...u, Pb, and Zn was evident. Site-dependent variations showed
that the highest concentrations of As, Cu, Pb, and Zn of anthropogenic origin were recorded in
Salzburg, while the highest levels of Al, Cr, and Ni of lithogenic origin were recorded in Belgrade
and Thessaloniki, which reflects the specificity of the geological substrates. Results obtained for the
health risk assessment showed that no human health risk was found for either children or adults.
