摘要： The spatial heterogeneity of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in a typical green tea-producing area in Zhejiang was investigated with application of geostatistics. The positive matrix factorization (PMF) was conducted for analysis of pollution sources and risk assessment of the soil of the tea garden. The results revealed that 93.52% of the study area did not exceed the PTEs risk screening value in the soil pollution risk control standard of agricultural land. The results of the spatial heterogeneity analysis showed that Cd and Pb had moderate spatial auto-correlation, exhibiting similar spatial distribution patterns. The high-value locations were distributed in the southeast of the study area, while low-value locations were distributed in the southwest of the study area. The Cr, As, and Hg had strong spatial auto-correlation, while Cr and As had similar spatial distribution patterns whose high-value areas and low-value areas were concentrated in the west and center of the study area, respectively. The Cd, Pb, and As originated from the agricultural source, transportation source, and industrial source, respectively, while Cr and Hg were from the natural source on the basis of the results of the PMF model. The results of a potential ecological risk assessment revealed that five PTEs in the study area were of low potential risk. The single-factor ecological risk ranking was Cd > As > Hg > Cr > Pb. The overall ecological risk in the study area was slight. The human health risk model indicates that there was a non-carcinogenic risk for children in the study area, and the high-value area was concentrated in the northwest of the study area. It is concluded that emphasis shall be given to excessive Cd caused by agricultural sources in the southeast of the study area, and control and monitoring will be strengthened in the northwestern part of the study area. The relevant measures for prevention of soil pollution must be conducted.
