Popis: Comprehensive understanding of the influence of soil properties on the potential availability of heavy metals could facilitate soil environment management. This study investigated the distribution of heavy metals and their potential availability in paddy and vegetable fields around electroplating factory outlets and irrigated with its wastewater. The potential availability was assessed using secondary phase fraction (SPF) of heavy metals, including acid-soluble, reducible, and oxidizable fractions resulting from BCR sequential extraction procedure. In total, 94 of topsoil samples (0–20 cm) were collected. Total and SPF concentrations of heavy metals as well as soil physicochemical properties were determined. Multivariable statistical analyses (i.e., principal component analysis (PCA) and redundancy analysis (RDA)) were employed. Results showed that total and SPF concentrations of heavy metals in soil decreased (P
