In: Egyptian Journal of Soil Science 2008 v .48 (2)Summary: The investigated area covers approximately 400,000 feddan, western area of Nile delta, and almost irrigated by fresh water of Nile River. Occasionally, due to shortage of fresh water in some periods, farmers use to irrigate their land with mixed water (low quality) from fresh water canals and drainage water (agricultural, domestic, industrial water a effluents). Also, the deposition of polluted air emitted from industries and vehicles, in this area, is also another source of soil pollution by Cd and Pb. The objective of this investigation was to study the distribution of DTPA-Cd and Pb in soil and their spatial variation in this area.
