- What is ISO 21226 - Soil screening using soil magnetometry about? ISO 21226 discusses soil quality with a focus on soil screening using soil magnetometry. ISO 21226 specifies methods for the measurements of magnetic susceptibility of soils (κ) as an indicator of potential soil pollution/contamination with trace elements associated with technogenic magnetic particles (TMPs). ISO 21226 describes related procedures, protocols, and guidelines to be applied as a screening geophysical method of determination of soil pollution with trace elements. The results of measurements are used for preparing the maps of the magnetic susceptibility of soils in the area of interest. ISO 21226 is applicable to screening all TMPs-related anthropogenic emission sources including long-range transport of airborne elements, of which TMPs are carriers and indicators. Note: ISO 21226 is not applicable to screening anthropogenic emissions not associated with TMPs, e.g., organic pollutants ...
