| Abstract/Contents: | "Soil and hemlock needle samples obtained in Fall, 1972 at various distances from the edge of a newly-opened section of Interstate-95 were analyzed for Na and Cl and compared with samples taken from the same locations the following year. Soil Na was significantly increased to distances of 12 m from the highway's edge after the salting season while soil Cl was increased to distances of 61 m. Both Na and Cl increased significantly in needle tissue at distances up to 61 m after one salting season." |
