We observed increased trace element concentrations in lichens and soils at sites closer to the dust source. Vegetation was more impacted by dust deposition, as well as the 0-2 cm soil layer compared to the 2-10 soil layer. The parameters measured were nickel (Ni) (mg/kg), copper (Cu) (mg/kg), arseni...
