Both soil solution Cu (Cupw) and Cu2+ successfully described the response variable for all ten soils with R² values of 0.73 and 0.66, respectively. Separation of soils as acid and alkaline and fitting separately showed that there was a strongly significant fit for both log Cu2+ and log Cupw in acidic soils (R² = 0.92 and 0.86, respectively) but weakly significant fit for alkaline soils. The pCu EC50 and EC10 values in all acidic soils for cucumber were 5.83 (6.03–5.63) and 7.53 (8.27–7.00), respectively. In our dataset alkaline soils need to be treated individually. In addition, pCu could be predicted based on pH and total concentration alone. Despite only 12 weeks ‘ageing’ there was quantitative agreement between pCu model from this study and predicted pCu from Sauvé et al. This agreement from studies performed independently indicates that, at least in the case of Cu2+, the difference in an ageing period of ≥10 years appears minimal.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:10:17 AEDT ]]> Mercury toxicity to terrestrial biota https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33740 Mon 17 Dec 2018 08:16:03 AEDT ]]> Residual hydrocarbons in long-term contaminated soils: implications to risk-based management https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55065 Mon 08 Apr 2024 13:13:26 AEST ]]>
