Elemental analysis of soils and Salix polaris in the town of Pyramiden and its surroundings (Svalbard)
The contents of elements in the top soil (upper 5 cm) and deeper soil (5 to 10 cm) layers and in Salix polaris (leaves and stem) from the former Soviet mining town of Pyramiden and its close vicinity on the Svalbard archipelago were determined. The analyses covered major and trace elements, includin...
