AB  - 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 Cu, 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.

AB  - Contaminated sediments transported onto the river terrace during high water events can contribute significant quantities of potentially toxic elements to riparian soils. Seven trace elements (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) were analysed in the river sediment and riparian soil of the River Sava and their spatial distribution, potential toxicity and ecological risk levels were evaluated. The results showed that levels of all the trace metals were enriched to varying extents in both the sediment (As, Cr, Ni, and Pb) and soil (Ni) when compared to reference levels for sediments and European soils. Mean concentrations of trace metals in sediment and soil, apart from Pb, increased downstream in the River Sava. The similar increasing trend of these elements in sediment and soil may be explained by their increased load due to anthropogenic pressures (As, Cr, Ni, Pb and Zn in sediment and the significant accumulation of Ni in soil) and frequent periodic flooding (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn in sediment and Cd in soil are influenced by both high water events and natural factors such as the geological substrate), particularly in lowland regions. In this study, soluble As, Cd, Cr, Cu and Ni fractions in sediment and soil  LT 10% indicated their low mobility. The exceptions were readily soluble Pb and Zn in the sediment and soil at some sampling sites. In the lower reaches, levels of Pb in sediment was indicative of a medium environmental hazard, while there was a high environmental hazard in the upper reaches with the average Pb content in sediment higher than the PEL. Pollution factors for Pb in soil indicated a medium environmental hazard in the upper and middle reaches and a high environmental hazard at some sites in the lower stretches of the Sava River, although total Pb content in soil was within the range proposed for European soils.
