L’évaluation des risques de sols pollués par les éléments traces métalliques (ETM) est délicate car l’activité anthropique interfère dans la nature et l’ampleur des apports d’ETM et peut perturber la composition et l’organisation des sols. Après l’incorporation des ETM dans l’horizon de surface, la nature, l’usage et l’occupation des sols impriment...
