With the use of the method of inversion voltammetry there was analyzed the content of movable forms of trace elements: (selenium, zinc, copper, lead, cadmium) in soils in the Yaroslavl district of the Yaroslavl region, and also content of zinc, copper, lead, cadmium in soils and snow cover in the city of Yaroslavl. According to values of concentrations of movable compounds in soils determined trace elements can be ranked into the following row: zinc > lead > copper > selenium > cadmium. There was revealed insufficient if compared with literature data concentrations, content of movable compounds of selenium, copper and zinc in examined explored soils. The maximal concentrations of lead are revealed in the close proximity to both the city of Yaroslavl and large highways of the city. It indicates to the anthropogenic pollution of soils by this element.
