| Impact Description | Heavy metals including Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb have the potential to leach from soil to water to various degrees. Salix caprea is a Facultative Wetland plant and its tolerance suggests it could remove heavy metals from wetlands soil and metals that are potentially dissolved in water, preventing the spread of metals to other bodies of water via hydrology. |
