ABSTRACT
Evaluating the distribution (species and concentration) of chemical elements in the biosphere
(rock, soil, water, plants, and air) and the study of chemical processes and reactions that govern
the composition of and chemical flux between various states is essential in determining the fate
and transport characteristics of elements, as well serving as an important facet of understanding
the urban environment. Forty samples from surface soils (0 - 20cm) and profile pit were
collected to evaluate the anthropogenic (human activities) and pedological (parent material)
factor that influenced the natural abundance, distribution and behavior of Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, Zn and
Ti under four different land use (Pasture field, fertilized cropland, vegetable garden treated with
municipal waste and forest land) in Zaria and Afaka, Northern Guinea Savanna of Nigeria. Soil
pHwas slightly acidic. Sabo vegetable garden soil had the highest pH which is similar to Afaka
forest while fertilized IAR farm though similar to NAPRI pasture field had the least.
Exchangeable Ca was highest at Sabo vegetable garden which was not different from NAPRI
pasture and fertilized IAR farm while Afaka forest had the least Ca content. Trend for Mg
concentration is NAPRI pasture field > fertilized IAR farm > Sabo vegetable garden > Afaka
forest. CEC values were lowest for Afaka forest and highest for Sabo vegetable garden with
relatively higher values for fertilized IAR farm and NAPRI pasture field. Afaka forest had the
