The magnetometric method is highly sensitive, therefore we can measure even small changes in the magnetic characteristics of soils. Under certain conditions the method is useful also in locations with low level of contamination such as national parks and other environmentally unique localities. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility was measured directly in the field by Bartington MS2 instrument. From forest floor and mineral soil samples detailed laboratory magnetic analyses were carried out to understand origin and translocation history of magnetic particles in soil horizon.
