Аннотация

The article presents the original data on the total Hg concentration in the needles of different tree species in the recreational zones of settlements on the south coast of the Republic of Crimea. Mean Hg concentrations were lower than in the Tomsk Region and the Republic of Sakha- Yakutia but higher than in Southern Siberia. Hg concentrations increased from west to east along the south coast of Crimea. Pine needles showed increased sorption properties relative to mercury, juniper needles had the least sorption. There was no dependence of the element input on height relative to sea level. Calculated indicators indicated elevated Hg concentrations in needles relative to the background, the temporary allowable concentration and the mean value for terrestrial plants.
