Utilizing PMF and Monte Carlo-based models to evaluate toxic metal enrichment pathways, sources, and public health risks in an unplanned urbanized dumpsite soil

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The PMF model identified three contamination sources. Cd posed the highest ecological risk, while Fe, Mn, Co, and Ni dominated health risks. Both adults and children had 100% carcinogenic risk probability, with more vulnerability in children.
