Refining source-oriented ecological-health risk assessments of soil potentially toxic elements using region-specific geochemical baseline values in a high geological background region

Naturally mineralized regions exhibit elevated geochemical backgrounds of soil potentially toxic elements (PTEs). However, the use of uniform geochemical baseline values (GBVs) frequently leads to misclassification between natural enrichment and anthropogenic contamination, hinde...
