AB  - Variation in stable lead isotopic composition has been recognized as a suitable indicator for source identification of Pb contamination in the environment. Some deciduous tree leaves have been reported as useful biomonitors of trace elements atmospheric pollution including lead. The focus of this work was to examine a relationship between the Pb concentration and the stable isotopic ratios (Pb-206/Pb-207 and Pb-208/Pb-207) in leaves of common urban deciduous trees Aesculus hippocastanum and Tilia spp. in the biomonitoring approach for source identification within the Pb atmospheric contamination studies. The study took place over a period of several years (2002-2006, 2009) when leaded gasoline was still in use in the Belgrade urban area, but an increasing number of vehicles using non-leaded gasoline was evident during the investigated time span. This status of decreasing atmospheric Pb contamination also reflected the leaf Pb content of the studied trees. However, while the Pb content in the leaves decreased during the studied period, the isotopic ratio of Pb-206/Pb-207 concomitantly increased throughout the years. The obtained Pb isotopic ratios in the leaves indicated the major contribution of leaded gasoline to the leaf Pb content. The leaf Pb isotope ratios also followed the switch (from Australian - 2002/2003/2004 to Chinese origin - 2005/2006) of the Pb ore used as the gasoline lead additive through the investigated years. The results of this study indicated A. hippocastanum as more appropriate than Tilia spp. in biomonitoring the Pb source identification, showing more consistency of data obtained on leaf Pb isotopic composition and the isotopic ratios of gasoline used throughout all studied years.

AB  - Air quality biomonitoring using plant leaves has been widely applied to assess the effects of atmospheric pollution. Although practiced for many years, it has not given completely satisfactory data, due to different and even opposing results. This study comprises an investigation on the content of some trace elements (Al, As, Ba, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Sr, Cd, Pb) in leaves of four tree species common for the urban area of Belgrade (Serbia). The assay took place in July 2009 when the selected trees (Acer platanoides, Aesculus hippocastanum, Betula pendula, Tilia cordata) were in the maximum of physiological activity during the vegetation season. Among the investigated species, leaves of A. platanoides contained the highest concentrations of the measured elements. The assumption that a large green area in the Belgrade city periphery would be a suitable control site appeared to be disputable due to the substantial load of the elements obtained in the leaves. It was shown that even a short rinse with bidistilled water (3-5 s), applied twice to the leaves prior to chemical analysis, led to a significant decrease of some element concentrations (most pronounced for Al, Fe and Pb in all species, but also evident for Cu, Cr, Co and Zn for some of them). However, by washing leaves, the representativeness of leaf samples per studied site could be improved due to removal of some superficial loosely adhered impurities and so diminished large variability of element concentrations among leaf subsamples providing more representative information on the element content in leaves per site, and the area, respectively.
