Abstract

Speciation of cadmium (Cd) was studied in four spiked agricultural soils at moisture content corresponding to 1.2 times field moisture capacity (FMC) and in the range from 1.2 FMC to soil–water 1∶10. Cadmium desorption isotherms were nonlinear in all soils, resulting in the decrease in Cd partition coefficient with loading. The Windermere Humic Aqueous Model (WHAM VI) was applied to predict Cd concentration in the solutions, and predicted values were compared with the measured ones. Based on total Cd content in soils, with concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sodium (Na) and soil solution pH as the input variables, WHAM VI predicted Cd concentration in soil solutions with the root‐mean‐square error (RMSE) of log[Cd] RMSElog[Cd]=0.54 (n=37). Using total Cd content in soils, average concentrations of Ca and DOC in soil solutions, and soil pH instead of soil solution pH enabled prediction of Cd concentration in soil solution with RMSElog[Cd]=0.56. Calculation of Cd concentration as a function of moisture content resulted in RMSElog[Cd]=0.25 (n=20).  相似文献

Analysis of spatial distribution of sewage-sludge born cadmium on the experimental plot revealed positive correlation of total cadmium and organic matter. Soil pH fluctuated randomly on the field. ‘Bioavailable’ concentrations, as determined by NH4-acetate extraction, were closely correlated to the total cadmium levels, and only negligible effects of pH and/or organic matter fluctuations were recorded. Desorption model using modified Freundlich isotherm was applied to predict risks of cadmium solubilization at different conditions. Simulations revealed that the organic matter content within the ranges found at the experimental field cannot support a proper immobilization of cadmium at pH-range observed at the field. The phenomenon was explained by ineffective care for the soil in the past.  相似文献

Lakes within 20 km of Sudbury, Ontario, have significantly higher Cd concentrations in surface waters (geometric mean 122 ng L?1; n = 7) than lakes elsewhere in central Ontario (10.8 ng L?1; n = 57). Cadmium concentrations in water from lakes beyond the Sudbury halo were negatively correlated (r = 0.797; p < 0.001) with pH. A weak correlation between fluoride and Cd concentrations leads to speculation that some Cd may be mobilized from watersheds with Al. Cadmium concentrations in littoral sediments are not elevated near Sudbury. The geometric mean Cd concentration of littoral sediments in central Ontario lakes is 0.08 mg Cd kg?1 dry mass (n = 75). Cadmium concentrations in littoral sediments are strongly correlated with sediment loss on ignition (r = 0.860; p < 0.001). After correction for differences in organic content, littoral sediments are less enriched with Cd than profundal sediments, as reported in the literature. The difference between littoral and profundal sediments, and the sensitivity of Cd concentrations in water to pH, may be due to the importance of Cd binding by Fe/Mn hydrous oxides in the profundal zone, while organic matter binds Cd in the littoral zone. The lack of sensitivity of Cd concentrations in littoral sediments to acidification may be due to the incorporation of much of the Cd in those sediments into organic particulates.  相似文献

Afforestation of former agricultural land changes soil characteristics such as pH and organic matter content, which may affect heavy metal solubility in the soil. In this study the effects of different tree species on heavy metal solubility were investigated at four 34 years old adjacent stands of beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), grand fir (Abies grandis Lindl.), Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) and oak (Quercus robur L.) planted on former agricultural land at four different sites in Denmark. The sites differ in soil characteristics and represent two texture classes (loamy sand and sandy loam). Soil pH and soil organic matter content was measured in the 16 stands and soil solution was isolated by centrifugation from three depths at four different occasions. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC), pH in the soil solution and the soil solution concentrations (availability) of Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn were determined. Analysis of variance showed that the tree species affects soil pH and organic matter content in the topsoil, but not in the lower horizons. Norway spruce and grand fir acidify more than beech and oak, and the highest amount of accumulated soil organic matter is in the topsoil under Norway spruce. The effects of tree species on soil solution pH and DOC resemble the effect on soil pH and organic matter content. Grand fir enhances the solubility of Cd and Zn in the topsoil with the lower solubility found under beech and oak and Norway spruce enhances the solubility of Cu, Ni and Pb in the top horizons. The lowest solubility of Ni and Pb is found under beech and oak, whereas the lowest Cu concentrations in the soil solution are found under grand fir. After 34 years of afforestation no effects of tree species on the concentrations of heavy metals in the soil solution from the C-horizons were found. The tree species effect on the concentration of Cd, Cu and Ni in the soil solution depends on the soil characteristics with the higher concentrations found in sandy loam soils, whereas no effect of site on the solution concentration was found for Pb and Zn. It was not possible to find a clear correlation between the soil solution concentrations of heavy metals, pH and DOC concentration.  相似文献

This article studied the interaction of cadmium (Cd) and lowmolecular weight organics in Indicotic black (IB) soil.Cadmium adsorption isotherm in this soil was satisfactorilysimulated using Freundlich equation as Q = 905.6C0.49 with high correlation (r2 = 0.984), and its adsorption quantity increased with increasing pH. The presence of citricacid and EDTA significantly reduced Cd adsorption in soil,which was due to the formation of soluble Cd-organic complex. Concentration of cadmium ions in equilibrium solution was determined and percentages of [CdH2Cit+]/[Cd-complexTotal],[CdHCit]/[Cd-complexTotal] and [CdCit-]/[Cd-complexTotal] vs. pH were successfully calculated. Desorption percentage ofCd, adsorbed in the presence of citric acid and EDTA decreased, compared with that adsorbed in NaNO3 media. It suggeststhat free sites for Cd adsorption in soil increased in thepresence of organic acid. When o-phenylenediamine, pyrocatechol and aminoethonic acid appeared in Cd equilibrium media, Cd adsorption quantity increased by increasing cation exchange ofpositively charged cadmium complex with soil at low pH. Compared with that performed in the absence of these organics, the exchangeable Cd, desorbed by 0.1 mol L-1 NaNO3, reduced obviously, which suggests that Cd-complex was moredifficult to be desorbed than Cd2+. Moreover, % Cd desorbedwas linearly correlated with the reverse of the total Cd adsorptionunder unsaturated adsorption.  相似文献

Abstract

The influence of Fe-deficiency on the root exudation of low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs), pH alteration and cadmium (Cd) accumulation and translocation were investigated in morel (Solanum nigrum L.) in hydroponic culture experiments. Tartaric, citric, malic and acetic acids were monitored because these acids were abundant and often detected as root exudates. Results showed that Fe-deficient plants excreted large amounts of LMWOAs in comparison with Fe-sufficient plants across all Cd treatments (p <0.05). In both cases the concentrations of the four organic acids were tartaric > citric > malic > acetic. The results showed that the Fe-deficient plants with higher concentrations of LMWOAs accumulated more Cd (p <0.05) and induced a decrease in solution pH compared with the Fe-sufficient plants. Cadmium accumulation in the Fe-deficient and Fe-sufficient plants had significant positive correlations with the exudation of malic and acetic acids (p <0.05 and p<0.01). Cadmium accumulation in the Fe-sufficient plants had a significant (p<0.01) positive correlation with the exudation of tartaric acid, whereas there was a negative correlation (p<0.01) between Cd accumulation and the exudation of tartaric acid in the Fe-deficient plants. No significant correlation between the exudation of citric acid and Cd accumulation was obtained. Our results indicate that Fe-deficiency could induce Cd accumulation and translocation through an increase of LMWOAs exudation and pH alteration, both of which enhance Cd bioavailability.  相似文献

Long-term effects of high Cd concentrations on enzyme activities, microbial biomass and respiration and bacterial community structure of soils were assessed in sandy soils where Cd was added between 1988 and 1990 as Cd(NO3)2 to reach concentrations ranging from 0 to 0.36 mmol Cd kg−1 dry weight soil. Soils were mantained under maize and grass cultivation, or ‘set-aside’ regimes, for 1 year. Solubility of Cd and its bioavailability were measured by chemical extractions or by the BIOMET bacterial biosensor system. Cadmium solubility was very low, and Cd bioavailability was barely detectable even in soils polluted with 0.36 mmol Cd kg−1. Soil microbial biomass carbon (BC) was slightly decreased and respiration was increased significantly even at the lower Cd concentration and as a consequence the metabolic quotient (qCO2) was increased, indicating a stressful condition for soil microflora. However, Cd-contaminated soils also had a lower total organic C (TOC) content and thus the microbial biomass C-to-TOC ratio was unaffected by Cd. Alkaline phosphomonoesterase, arylsulphatase and protease activities were significantly reduced in all Cd-contaminated soils whereas acid phosphomonoesterase, β-glucosidase and urease activites were unaffected by Cd. Neither changes in physiological groups of bacteria, nor of Cd resistant bacteria could be detected in numbers of the culturable bacterial community. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of the bacterial community showed slight changes in maize cropped soils containing 0.18 and 0.36 mmol Cd kg−1 soil as compared to the control. It was concluded that high Cd concentrations induced mainly physiological adaptations rather than selection for metal-resistant culturable soil microflora, regardless of Cd concentration, and that some biochemical parameters were more sensitive to stress than others.  相似文献

Assessing the accumulation and transport of trace metals in soils and the associated toxicological risks on a national scale requires generally applicable sorption equations. Therefore Freundlich equations were derived for Cd, Zn and Cu using multiple linear regression on batch sorption data from the literature with a wide variety of soil and experimental characteristics, and metal concentrations ranging over five orders of magnitude. Equations were derived based on both total dissolved metal concentrations and free metal activities in solution. Free metal activities were calculated from total metal concentrations taking into account ionic activity, and inorganic (all metals) and organic complexation (Cu only). Cadmium and Zn were present in solution predominantly as free ions, while Cu was present as organic complexes. Since actual dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations were not available they were estimated using an empirical field relation between DOC and organic matter content. The logarithmic transformation of the Freundlich constant for Cd was regressed on the logarithmic transformations of cation exchange capacity (CEC) (H+) and dissolved Ca, and for Zn with CEC and (H+). For Cu the log–log regression model of the Freundlich constant included the solid:solution ratio of the batch to account for dilution of DOC in the batch as compared with the field. The explained variance for the fitted Freundlich equations was 79% for Cd, 65% for Cu and 83% for Zn, using log-transformed adsorbed concentrations and soil solution activities. The Freundlich adsorption models underestimated metal contents determined from 1 m HNO3 digestion on field samples, up to a factor of 6 (Cd and Cu) or 10 (Zn).  相似文献

Four lettuce (Lactuca saliva L.) varieties ('Benita’, ‘Wendy’, ‘Mirena’, and ‘Jacky') were grown for 43 days in a pH‐controlled complete nutrient solution without cadmium (Cd) or with either 0.01 or 0.03 mg Cd/1 and with NH4 or NO3 as the form of nitrogen nutrition. Cadmium did not affect dry matter yield. ‘Wendy’ had a significantly higher total dry matter production when grown on NO3 compared to NH4, whereas growth of ‘Mirena’ was best on NH4 (P<0.05). Dry weights of ‘Benita’ and ‘Jacky’ were not affected by the N source. Cadmium concentrations in shoots (and roots) of plants grown on NH4 were significantly higher than in plants grown on NO3. The Zn concentrations in the shoots were also enhanced. The distribution of Cd in the lettuce varieties was independent of the form of N nutrition. It is concluded that the N source directly affects the amount of Cd taken up, without influencing the Cd distribution.  相似文献

Potentiometric and ion-selective electrode titrations together with batch sorption/desorption experiments, were performed to explain the aqueous and surface complexation reactions between kaolinite, Pb, Cd and three organic acids. Variables included pH, ionic strength, metal concentration, kaolinite concentration and time. The organic acids used were p-hydroxybenzoic acid, o-toluic acid, and 2,4-dinitrophenol. Titrations were used to derive previously unavailable aqueous conditional stability constants for the organometallic complexes. Batch results showed that aqueous lead-organic complexation reduced sorption of Pb by kaolinite. Cadmium behavior was similar, except for 2,4-dinitrophenol, where Cd sorption was increased. Metal sorption increased with increasing pH and decreasing ionic strength. Distribution ratios (K d 's) decreased with increasing solid/solution ratio. The subsurface transport of lead and cadmium may be enhanced via complex interactions with organic wastes or their degradation products and sorbent mineral surfaces.

In the southwest of Iran over 130,000 ha of land are under sugarcane (Saccarum officinarum). In these sugarcane fields, about 400 kg ha?1 diamonium phosphate (DAP) and 400 kg ha?1 urea are applied annually. Four sugarcane growing sites were selected for this study: Haft-tapeh, Karoon, Shoeibieh and Ghazali with cultivation histories of 36, 20, 2 and 1 years, respectively. For each area, soil samples (0–30 cm) were taken from a transect of uncultivated, and both furrows and ridges of cultivated land. Electrical conductivity (EC), pH, clay, and calcium carbonate and organic carbon (OC) contents, Cl, Cd, Ni and Zn of 101 soil samples were measured. Cadmium profile distribution to a soil depth of 300 cm was determined, and the heavy metal concentrations in sugarcane and the associated soil samples of the three sugarcane sites were measured. The Cd and Ni contents among the sugarcane sites differed where Cd was related to clay content and Ni was related to OC content of soils. Cadmium content in sugarcane cultivated soil was lower compared to uncultivated soil even after years of application of P fertilizers. Nickel and Cd contents of sugarcane were much higher than levels in top soils but there was no significant relationship between Cd or Ni contents of sugarcane and soil chemical properties. The Zn content of soils decreased as either EC or Cl concentration of soils increased. There were no significant differences in Zn contents between different sugarcane sites and also between cultivated and uncultivated soils. Results also indicated that Cd was accumulated in bagasse and Ni was primarily accumulated in bagasse and molasses, but these heavy metals of white sugar were lower than the detectable values.  相似文献

The influence of selected factors on Cd levels in soils and in grain of oats and winter wheat was investigated. Soil and grain were sampled at sites randomly distributed over Sweden. Organic soils generally had higher Cd contents and lower pH levels than mineral soils, and plants growing in organic soils tended to have higher Cd contents than plants growing in mineral soils. In mineral soils the amount of soil Cd extractable in 2M HNO3 was positively correlated with the pH and the contents of organic matter and clay. The studied variable best correlated with the Cd content of oat grain grown on mineral soils was the pH (negative correlation). Soil contents of organic matter, clay, HNO3-extractable Cd and Zn were also found to be significantly related to the Cd content in a stepwise regression analysis. In winter wheat grain, Cd content was best correlated with the HNO3-extractable Cd (positive correlation). Additional significant factors were pH, grain yield and contents of organic matter, clay and HNO3-extractable Zn. In winter wheat the presence of Zn reduced Cd uptake, and vice versa; no such mutually antagonistic relationship was apparent in oats. In oats, but not in wheat, it was possible to predict most of the differences in grain Cd content, caused by the factors described above, based on the variation in CaCl2-extractable soil Cd. Analysis of samples from field trials indicated that there were differences in Cd content between varieties of both crops. Variation in factors described generally explained most of the differences in soil- and grain Cd levels between regions.  相似文献

Due to potential problems associated with their toxicities, concentration of heavy metals in soils is of great environmental concern. To evaluate Cd content, its spatial pattern, and availability in the surface soils of agricultural, industrial and urban regions of Isfahan, central Iran, we collected 255 topsoil samples (0–20 cm) from the nodes of an irregular grid in a study area of 6800 km2. In the soil samples we measured total and DTPA-extractable Cd concentrations, soil pH, organic mater (OM), clay content, soil salinity, and chloride concentration. The total Cd concentration in 90% of the samples exceeded the suggested Swiss thresholds of 0.8 mg kg?1. Landuse had a significant effect on total concentration of Cd in the soil but had no effect on DTPA-extractable Cd. High values of total Cd were found in industrial and urban areas whereas low values occurred in uncultivated lands. The correlation analysis revealed that soil salinity alone explained 36% of the Cd variation in the entire study area. The correlation was particularly strong in uncultivated areas (R 2 = 0.70). Spatial analysis of available Cd using indicator kriging and soil salinity showed a spatial co-occurrence of these two variables.  相似文献

Effects of organic acids （oxalic, acetic, and citric） on adsorption characteristics of Cadmium （Cd） on soil clay minerals （kaolinite, goethite, and bayerite） were studied under different concentrations and different pH values. Although the types of organic acids and minerals were different, the effects of the organic acids on the adsorption of Cd on the minerals were similar, i.e., the amount of adsorbed Cd with an initial solution pH of 5.0 and initial Cd concentration of 35 mg L^-1 increased with increasing concentration of the organic acid in solution at lower concentrations, and decreased at higher concentrations. The percentage of Cd adsorbed on the minerals in the presence of the organic acids increased considerably with increasing pH of the solution. Meanwhile, different Cd adsorption in the presence of the organic acids, due to different properties on both organic acids and clay minerals, on kaolinite, goethite, or bayerite for different pHs or organic acid concentrations was found.  相似文献

The supply of cadmium from soil to plant roots mainly depends on the diffusion prooess.This work was conducted to study the effects of some soil properties on cadmium diffusion coefficient (D) in soil. Measurements were made using the Shofield and Graham-Bryce‘s isotopic labelling method.Cadmium diffusion coefficients varied from 10^-7to 10^-9 cms^2-1.Higher values were observed in acid sandy soils and lower values in calcareous clay soils.Liming an acid soil resulted in a substantial decrease of D.Addition of cadmium as nitrate salt generally increased D,while addition of sewage sludge and organic matter resulted in a significant decrease of cadmium diffusion.The rhizospheric activity also induced a moderate reduction in D.The relationships between D(10^-9cms^2-1)on the on hand and soil pH.moisture(Mc,g kg^-1) ,organic matter(OM,g kg^-1),clay(Cy,gkg^-1)and cadmium content(Cd,mgkg^-1) on the other were obtained by the multiple regression:D=182.1-29.91pH 0.210Mc-0.303OM 0.011Cy 1.64Cd(R^2=0.859,n=22).  相似文献

Cadmium distribution coefficients, K d were determined at low Cd concentrations (solute: 0.2 to 3.0 μg Cd dm?3, soil: 0.044 to 1.1 mg Cd kg?1) for 63 Danish agricultural soils. The K d values ranged from 15 to 2450 L kg?1. About 40% of the soils had K d values below 200 L kg?1. The observed K d values correlated very well with soil pH (r 2 = 0.72). Introducing soil organic matter content as a second parameter improved the correlation some (r 2 = 0.79). No further improvements were obtained by introducing traditional soil parameters as clay, silt, fine sand, coarse sand and CEC or ‘reactive’ parameters as oxyhydroxides of Mn, Fe and Al. The identified regression equation for predicting K d values indicates that K d approximately doubles for each 0.5 unit increase in pH or 2% increase (weight basis) in organic matter content.  相似文献

To investigate Cd behavior in a heterogeneous soil, soil samples were taken along a transect in a field. Total Cd content, Cd concentration in solution, and soil properties controlling Cd sorption were measured. The scale and degree of variability of these parameters were assessed using statistical and spectral analysis. No substantial correlation was found between total Cd and Cd in solution. However, with a scaled sorption model that accounts for effects of pH and organic matter content the variability of total Cd was predicted well as a function of measured concentrations and soil properties. Apparently, total Cd contents of this soil are primarily controlled by the organic matter content and pH.  相似文献

The present study is focused on the possible mediatory role of salicylic acid (SA) under cadmium (Cd+2) toxicity. Cadmium treatments resulted in the inhibition of root dry biomass, root elongation and increased Cd accumulation in roots. Pretreatment of seeds with SA (500 μM) for 20 hrs resulted in protection against Cd, increased root dry biomass, root elongation and minimal accumulation of cadmium. Cadmium chloride (CdCl2; 0.0, 100, 400 and 1000 μM) produced a significant inhibition in chlorophyll, photosynthetic efficiency [carbon dioxide (14CO2)-fixation], relative water content (RWC) and abscisic acid (ABA) content. Pretreatment of seeds with SA alleviated the Cd negative effect on these parameters. A drop in the activities of carboxylating enzymes, phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase (PEPC, EC 4.1.1.31), and ribulose1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPC, EC 4.1.1.39) were observed in Cd treated plants. Pretreatment with SA ameliorated the inhibitory effect of Cd on the studied enzymatic activities. Cadmium applied to salicylic acid free plants increased the level of stress metabolites, malondialdehide (MDA), hydrogen peroxides, and free proline content. Salicylic acid pretreatment decreased the toxic effect level of cadmium manifested by lower lipid peroxidation, lesser production of H2O2 and reduction in free proline content. The ultrastructural investigation of the root cells of wheat exposed to different concentrations of Cd for 15 days was carried out. The results indicated that Cd induced several obvious ultrastructural changes such as increased vacuolation, condensed cytoplasm with increased density of the matrix, reduction of mitochondrial cristae, severe plasmolysis, highly condensed nuclear chromatin and increment of disintegrated organelles. Electron dense granules appeared between the cell wall and plasmalemma. In vacuoles, electron dense granules encircled by the membrane were aggregated and formed into larger precipitates, which increase in number and volume as a consequence of excessive Cd exposure. An important issue arising from this study was how the short-term treatment with SA affected several physiological processes, such as plant growth, photosynthesis, and antioxidant defense system. We assume that the beneficial effect of SA during an earlier growth period could be related to avoidance of cumulative damage upon exposure to cadmium. One of the important roles of SA in inducing resistance to various environmental stresses is manifested by its ability to express genes that code for pathogenesis-related proteins or defense-related enzymes. Also, SA could form a complex with Cd that may provide Cd tolerance.  相似文献

smelters in Northern France were studied by analysing the chemical forms of these metals and evaluating their phytoavailability. These metals were determined using flame or electrothermal absorption atomic spectrometry （FAAS or ETAAS）, depending on their concentration levels. After optimisation of the ETAAS method, characteristic mass of In in water and aqua regia were 9.9 and 18 pg, respectively, showing the high sensitivity of the analytical Soil contamination by metals from anthropogenic activities （e.g., mining and smelting） is a major concern for the environment and human health. Environmental availability of cadmium （Cd）, lead （Pb）, zinc （Zn）, copper （Cu）, and indium （In） in 27 urban soils located around two former Pb and Zn smelters in Northern France were studied by analysing the chemical forms of these metals and evaluating their phytoavailability. These metals were determined using flame or electrothermal absorption atomic spectrometry （FAAS or ETAAS）, depending on their concentration levels. After optimisation of the ETAAS method, characteristic mass of In in water and aqua regia were 9.9 and 18 pg, respectively, showing the high sensitivity of the analytical procedure. Metal partitioning was conducted using a four-step sequential extraction procedure. The results showed that Cd and Zn were mainly in the acid-extractable and reducible forms in the urban soils studied. In contrast, Pb and In were largely in the reducible fraction. However, in some samples, the amount of In extracted in the residual or exchangeable fraction was higher than that in the reducible fraction. Copper was mainly found in the reducible and residual fractions. A pot experiment was conducted in a glasshouse with seven soils （six contaminated and one uncontaminated） and two plant species, ryegrass and lettuce. The results showed transfer of metals from the contaminated soils to the shoots of ryegrass and the edible part of lettuce. The metal bioconcentration factor was in the order of Cd Cu > In > Zn Pb for lettuce leaves, whereas for ryegrass shoots, three orders were found, Cd > Zn > Cu In > Pb, Cd ≥ In > Zn > Cu Pb, and Zn > Cd > Cu > In > Pb, depending on the physico-chemical properties of the soils, such as pH, cation exchange capacity, carbonates, and organic matter. It was established that the metal toxicity was related to the contamination levels and the physico-chemical properties, including pH, organic matter, and in a lesser extent, Ca, Mg, and phosphorus contents, of the soils. However, it was shown that lettuce could grow on soils having high Cd and CaCO3 contents. Cadmium was one of the most available metals while Pb was always the least available in the soils studied.  相似文献

Potential risks for human health and adverse effects on soil quality caused by accumulation of cadmium (Cd) in soil at concentrations around or exceeding current European Union (EU) permitted limits have long been recognized. We have assessed availability and partitioning of Cd in a Mediterranean calcareous soil under four management regimes. Cadmium was added as a single pulse of CdSO4 at the maximum Cd concentration established by the EU for sludge‐amended agricultural soils and concentrations exceeding the mandatory limits. Soils were treated with 0, 3, 10 and 50 mg Cd kg?1 soil, incubated moist and analysed at selected times up to 600 days. Cadmium availability and distribution in soil were studied by neutral electrolyte and sequential extractions. During the incubation, the availability of Cd was not strictly dependent on the amount of metal added as the exchangeable fractions were similar shortly after the additions of Cd regardless of its initial concentration. Sequential extractions showed that for concentrations of 3 and 10 mg Cd kg?1 soil Cd was evenly distributed among the soil phases, and its mobility was reduced mainly by adsorption on carbonates. At Cd concentrations exceeding 10 mg Cd kg?1 soil a residual fraction appeared, perhaps from precipitation of Cd. Most of the Cd was associated with carbonates; land management and organic matter content had no major effects on the Cd distribution among different soil phases. The extraction protocols were effective for studying the fate of Cd in this calcareous soil as almost all of the Cd added was recovered. However, the introduction of a preliminary step with buffered NH4NO3 improved the determination of the most labile pools. Availability of Cd in calcareous soils estimated with reference methods appeared to be very small even when its total concentration far exceeded the current EU limits.  相似文献
