Kurzfassung

Uranium (U) and many trace elements are enriched in phosphorus fertilizers. Concentrations up to 260 mg/kg P2O5 indicate the potential of U contamination of the environment. Two fertilized long-time soil monitoring fields (BDF) in Lower Saxony have higher top soil concentration than comparable unfertilized top soils sampled at the Green-Belt in the vicinity of the BDFs. Extraction experiments could show that fertilizer-derived U is easier mobilized and hence might be leached faster to the groundwater than the geogenic U in soils. Groundwater analyses in an area of intense agricultural production show U in correlation with nitrate, indicating an impact of anthropogenic fertilization on the U concentration in shallow groundwater. The results of soil, soil extract and groundwater analyses are giving indications for fertilizer-derived U leaching to groundwater aquifers and hence show the potential hazard for our drinking water resources.
