Geochemical Atlas of Europe (printed version)

The FOREGS Geochemical Atlas of Europe is a cooperative project of the Geochemistry Task Group (presently the EuroGeoSurveys’ Geochemistry Expert Group).

 

It is the first multi-national and multi-sample media continental-scale geochemical mapping project that followed the specifications of IGCP 259 ‘International Geochemical Mapping’ for the establishment of the European Geochemical Reference Network.

 

The project started in 1997 with the compilation of the FOREGS Geochemical Mapping Field Manual, and the training of all sampling teams at a dedicated workship in Slovakia.

 

The sampling scheme used the Global Terrestrial Network (GTN) grid cells of 160x160 km.  Five random points were generated in each GTN grid cell.  For sampling, the nearest second order stream to the random sampling point was selected, and its corresponding third order stream.  Samples of active stream sediment, stream water, and residual soil (top and bottom) were collected from second order streams of <100 km2 in area, and floodplain sediment from third order streams of 1000 to 6000 km2 in area.

 

The project was completed in 2006 with the publication of a two hardbound volumes, and the release of all the analytical data, text and maps through a dedicated website hosted by the Geological Survey of Finland (http://weppi.gtk.fi/publ/foregsatlas/):

Field Manual of the FOREGS Geochemical Atlas of Europe

Salminen, R., Tarvainen, T., Demetriades, A., Duris, M., Fordyce, F.M., Gregorauskiene, V., Kahelin, H., Kivisilla, J., Klaver, G., Klein, P., Larson, J.O., Lis, J., Locutura, J., Marsina, K., Mjartanova, H., Mouvet, C., O’Connor, P., Odor, L., Ottonello, G., Paukola, T., Plant, J.A., Reimann, C., Schermann, O., Siewers, U., Steenfelt, A., Van Der Sluys, J. & Williams, L., 1998. FOREGS Geochemical Mapping Field Manual. Geological Survey of Finland, Espoo, Guide 47, 36 pp.

 

The electronic version of the field manual can be downloaded from: http://tupa.gtk.fi/julkaisu/opas/op_047.pdf

 

Although the FOREGS Field Manual has now been replaced by the International Union of Geological Sciences Manual of Standard Methods for Establishing the Global Geochemical Reference Network, its continued availability is kept for historical reasons. 

 

The FOREGS Geochemical Atlas of Europe periodic tables

An innovative and effective way of displaying all published geochemical maps on the same page is to present them on a periodic table of elements.  At the position of each element in the periodic table the corresponding geochemical map is placed.  Hence, the mapped geochemical patterns of each element can easily be compared with those of other elements.  Five periodic tables have been designed and are freely available for downloading:-

 

  • The FOREGS periodic table of residual topsoil in Europe
  • The FOREGS periodic table of residual subsoil in Europe
  • The FOREGS periodic table of stream water in Europe
  • The FOREGS periodic table of stream sediment in Europe
  • The FOREGS periodic table of floodplain sediment in Europe 

 

 The size of each periodic table is 90 cm height and 130 cm width.  The recommendation for a full impact is for the periodic table to be printed at a size of 120 cm height and 173 cm, and on canvas.

Use of FOREGS data

The following papers use data from the FOREGS/EGS Geochemical Atlas of Europe:

 

Filzmoser, P., Hron, K. & Reimann, C., 2009. Univariate statistical analysis of environmental (compositional) data: Problems and possibilities. Science of the Total Environment, 407, 6100-6108.

 

Jordan, G., 2009. Sustainable mineral resources management: from regional mineral resources exploration to spatial contamination risk assessment of mining. Environmental Geology, 58(1), 153-169.

 

The following report was recently brought to our attention by Kaj Lax (Sweden), and is very interesting, because it mentions the FOREGS Geochemical Atlas of Europe and the Global Geochemical Baselines project:  Parkman, H (Editor), 2007. Critical Review of “Metals Environmental Risk Assessment Guidance for Metals” (MERAG). TemaNord 2007:579, Nordic Council of Ministers, Copenhagen, 85 pp. [http://norden.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:701171/FULLTEXT01.pdf].

 

 

 

It is worthwhile to quote some examples from this report:

 

 

  • Lately the FOREGS data have been made available and may be used to derive typical values for abiotic factors in European freshwaters. The metal concentrations in this database may, with careful considerations, be used as surrogates for current background levels” (p.9).


  • In addition, the term ‘natural background’ is used alternately with ‘ambient concentrations’ and ‘background concentrations’ in the documents. A more strict definition of ‘natural’ should be presented. The data that are referred to as natural background levels of metals, in the fact sheet should not be used for that purpose, since they are in general extremely high compared to e.g. levels in the FOREGS database” (p. 19).


  • Instead data from randomised sampling and high spatial coverage should be used to increase the realism of such scenarios. The FOREGS database may be used to choose typical values for abiotic factors and the metal concentrations in this database may be used as surrogates for current background levels in remote areas. Surrogates for natural background levels may be found in far north. However, the definition of current and natural background level is a complicated issue” (p.22).


  • The second example is taken from the European geological mapping programme of FOREGS (see http://weppi.gtk.fi/publ/foregsatlas/). This sampling programme is based on the same statistical criteria as are used in the global mapping programme. That is, randomised sampling and high coverage of the EU countries. This approach will certainly produce data spatially more representative for the EU than aforementioned data sets. Thus, the aim of this mapping programme is in FOREGS own words ‘to show the actual situation within Europe’”.

 

 

Conclusions:

  1. Representative data sets in space may rest on randomised sampling and high spatial coverage, as practised by FOREGS.

  2. FOREGS water chemical data are to prefer before biased data sets, when calculating “worst case” scenarios for the EU.

  3. FOREGS data may be used as surrogates for current background metal levels in remote areas. Surrogates for natural background levels may be found in far north (National databases).

  4. However, the definition of current and natural background level is a complicated issue depending on several factors (fact sheet 3, 1.2.5)” (p.56).

     

It is quite apparent from the above that the approach used in the Global Geochemical Baselines project is gradually being accepted by other scientists
