Abstract

AbstractIt long has been known that ombrotrophic peat bog preserves the record of the atmospheric deposition of metal pollutants. In this paper, the results of an investigation of two peat cores taken in Austria from Langmoos bog located near a motorway and one taken in southern Poland located far away from main roads are presented. The concentration levels of Pb and Br in dated peat cores were studied in order to find out whether the close location of a motorway to a bog will influence the contents of these elements in peat.
