Therefore, this study quantified DCDsorption-desorption on a phaeozem (Mollisol), a burozem (Alfisol), a soil with organicmatter-removed and peat humus using the batch-equilibration procedure, and identified soilproperties that influenced DCD sorption. The sorption on peat humus was higher than that on thephaeozem and the burozem, with much lower sorption observed on the soil with organic matter-removed,indicating that soil organic matter was the main carrier of DCD sorption. Due to its amphipathicproperty the DCD molecule sorption on the phaeozem and the burozem decreased as pH increased fromabout 2 to 5, but a further increase in pH led to a rise in DCD sorption. The DCD desorptionhysteretic effect for peat humus was greater than that for the phaeozem and the burozem using 0.01mol L^(-1) CaCl_2 as the background electrolyte, suggesting that the hydrophobic domains of organicmatter may play an important role in DCD sorption.展开更多

Samples of humic substances extracted from two tropical peats （HS-P1 and HS-P2） were enriched with the micronutrients Cu（II）, Co（II）, Fe（II）, Mn（II）, Ni（II） and Zn（II） and the parameters for formation of the complexes （HS-N） were evaluated at different pH. The Scatchard model was used to calculate the maximum complexation capacity and the nutrient availability was studied using exchange capacity experiments based on ultrafiltration procedure. The optimum pH for complexation was 4.5 and the order of affinity was： Fe（II） 〉 Cu（II） 〉 Co（II） 〉 Mn（II） = Ni（II） 〉 Zn（II）. The maximum complexation capacity reached 56.8 mg·g-1 Fe of HS-P1 （the highest） and 1.7 mg.g1 Zn of HS-P2 （the slightest）. The exchange experiments showed that HS-P-Fe complexes were formed preferentially. The least stable complex was formed with Zn, which was therefore, more easily available. The results contribute to understand the behavior and availability of some nutrients in soils.展开更多
