Abstract
The accumulation of lead from motor-vehicle exhausts on soils and trees growing along a busy thoroughfare in the Lalbag area of Baroda city has been investigated. The analysis of soils and tree samples showed that the distribution of emitted lead was influenced by the direction of the prevailing wind. The plants and soils near the roadside have a higher lead concentration than at a distance of 4-6 m.
