Article Synopsis
- An analysis of soil heavy metals on Hainan Island revealed that only 0.56% of sampling points were heavily polluted, while 15.27% showed mild pollution, primarily in the northern region.
- Four main sources of heavy metals were identified: agricultural activities for cadmium, industrial/mining for arsenic, transportation for zinc and lead, and natural sources for chromium, nickel, and copper.
- Although non-carcinogenic risks for adults and children were generally safe, children faced potential health risks from non-carcinogenic exposure, and chromium and nickel presented significant carcinogenic risks, emphasizing the need for monitoring and control of these metals in agricultural soils.
