The NH<sub>4</sub>OAc (pH = 7.0) exchange method is usually recommended to determine CEC (CEC<sub>1</sub>) of all soils with different pH values, particularly for studies on soil taxonomy. But comparatively the BaCl<sub>2</sub>-MgSO<sub>4</sub> forced-exchange method is more authentic in determining CEC (CEC<sub>2</sub>) of tropical and subtropical highly-weathered acid soils. But so far little is known about the difference between CEC<sub>1</sub> and CEC<sub>2</sub>. In this study, the physiochemical data of 114 acid B horizon soils from 112 soil series of tropical and subtropical China were used, CEC<sub>1</sub> and CEC<sub>2</sub> were determined and compared, the influencing factors were analyzed for the difference between CEC<sub>1</sub> and CEC<sub>2</sub>, and then a regression model was established between CEC<sub>1</sub> and CEC<sub>2</sub>. The results showed that CEC<sub>2</sub> was significantly lower than CEC<sub>1</sub> (p < 0.01), CEC<sub>2</sub> was 14.76% - 63.31% with a mean of 36.32% of CEC<sub>1</sub>. In view of the contribution to CEC from other properties, CEC<sub>2</sub> was mainly determined by pH (45.92%), followed by silt (21.05%), free Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (17.35%) and clay contents (12.76%), CEC<sub>1</sub> was mainly decided by free Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> content (40.38%), followed by pH (28.39%) and silt content (27.29%;and the difference between CEC<sub>1</sub> and CEC<sub>2</sub> was mainly affected by free Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (50.92%), followed by silt content (26.46%) and pH (21.80%). The acceptable optimal regression model between CEC<sub>2</sub> and CEC<sub>1</sub> was established as CEC<sub>2</sub> = 2.3114 × CEC<sub>1</sub><sup>1.1496</sup> (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.410, P < 0.001, RMSE = 0.15). For the studies on soil taxonomy, the BaCl<sub>2</sub>-MgSO<sub>4</sub> forced-exchange method is recommended in determining CEC of the highly-weathered acid soils in the tropical and subtropical regions.展开更多
