A PHOSPHATE SORPTION INDEX FOR SOILS

BACHE, B. W., WILLIAMS, E. G.·1971·Journal of Soil Science

Abstract

Summary: Phosphate sorption isotherms covering a wide concentration range (10 −6 to 5 × 10 −3 m phosphate) were determined for 42 soil samples at 20 °C by a standardized technique. The slope of a plot of the sorption, x , against the logarithm of the equilibrium solution phosphate concentration, log c , measured at c = 10 −4 M, proved a suitable reference index to characterize the phosphate sorbing properties of the soils. Several single‐point methods were tested by statistical correlation against this reference index. Of these, the sorption, x , from one addition of 150 mg P/100 g soil gave r = 0.951, but r = 0.974 when the equilibrium concentration was also taken into account in the quotient x /log c . This quotient is therefore suggested as a simple yet adequate way of indicating a fundamental soil property, its phosphate sorption isotherm.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
