Abstract
The article presents the results of a study of heavy metals content (Pb, Cd, Cu) in the soil and needles of Picea pungens (Engelm.) growing in an urban environment (Yoshkar-Ola). No excess of hygienic standards for lead, copper and iron was found in the soils, whereas the content of cadmium was slightly higher (1.11 (APC) (Approximate permissible concentration) in the industrial zone. The ash content and heavy metals content in the needles of plants growing in the industrial zone was the highest. Heavy metals were found to accumulate in the needles of P. pungens in the following increasing order: Cd < Pb < Cu. The biological absorption coefficient (BAC) of Pb, Cu by P. pungens in all the areas of Yoshkar-Ola was less than 1.0, which indicates a low intensity of absorption. The biogeochemical activity of P. pungens was the highest in the recreational area of the city.
