Abstract

The city of Vác occupies a central place in the Danube Bend Region. The natural advantages values are affected by air pollution due to the increased industrial, commercial, and economic life of the city. Among Vác’s attributes, we can find rare and invaluable cultural and historical values. The most significant natural attribute is the Grove of Vác near the Danube bank. The example of the Grove of Vác is of countrywide importance in many aspects – it is part of the Duna-Ipoly National Park – though local protection by the Government of Vác is reasonable regarding the treatment and links because of the pollution of the environment. Nowadays, the research of environmental pollution comes to the front because of the importance of heavy metals in the landscape classification. Even though the heavy metals are a natural component of the environment, we have to look them toxic materials. This paper focuses on the pollution analysis I carried out with various plant samples. It shows the main toxicology pollutants present in different landscape use units.
