Factors influencing metal bioavailability in soils: preliminary investigations for the development of a critical loads approach for metals

Rieuwerts, J.S., Thornton, I., Farago, M.E., Ashmore, M.R.·1998·Chemical Speciation & Bioavailability

Abstract

The concept of critical loads, previously applied to acidifying substances, is currently being extended, within the Convention on Long Range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP), to several metals: Cd, Cu, Hg, Pb and Zn. Receptors in the soil, such as plants and microbiota, are directly exposed to these metals via the soil solution and this should ideally be reflected in environmental quality objectives which, presently, are commonly based on ‘total’ rather than bioavailable metal contents of soils. An understanding of the factors influencing the partition of metals between the solid and solution phases of soils is an essential prerequisite of any attempt to apply the critical loads approach in a manner which relates to the effects of metals on soil organisms.

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.
