“…Comparing of the three soils, the NH 4 + , Rb, and Cs showed solubilization owing to fertilizer in Tsukuba soil and Kasumigaura soil, but Takatsuki soil did not. Our results agree in part with previous results showing that excess NH 4 + and K in a soil caused the release of Mg, K, Ca, and Zn (Lorenz et al, 1994) and Cs (Chiang et al, 2008;Schulz et al, 1960) into the soil solution.…”

In blueberry culture, sulfur is applied to enhance soil acidification, and fertilizer is applied to increase growth and yield. We investigated the effects of soil management on the solubilization of 13 elements in the root zone and their relationships with absorption by blueberry bushes. In a 2-year pot experiment, four-year-old rabbiteye blueberries 'Onslow' were grown in one of three soils (an Andosol, a Cambisol, or a Fluvisol), with or without soil treatment (no treatment, acidification, fertilization, or acidification plus fertilization). The soil solution was collected eight times during the experiment. Fruit, leaves, branches, stems, and roots were sampled during and at the end of the experiment. The concentrations of 13 elements (N, Na, Mg, Al, P, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Rb, and Cs) in the samples were analyzed. Soil solution pH was also measured. In all soils, the soil solution pH was decreased to 3.7

“…The first desorption method, which is commonly used (Schulz et al, 1960;Evans et al, 1983;Konoplev et al, 1996;Smith and Comans, 1996;Rigol et al, 1998), is to exchange the adsorbed radiocaesium from the solid with a high concentration of NH 4 . In our setup of this experiment, an amount of the appropriate background solution was first prepared and spiked with a known amount of radiocaesium.…”

“…The fixation ofCs lzr is minimal or negligible for monomineralic kaolinite or expanded montmorillonite (Schulz et al, 1960). Interleaved micaceous components (Lee et al, 1975), occurring as impurities in kaolinite, may be responsible for the strong fixation of radionuclides such as Cs 13r (Francis and Brinkley, 1976;Komarneni, 1978).…”

Abstract--Seven kaolins from Georgia (southeastern U.S.A.), ranging from high to low commercial grade, were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and chemical techniques to establish that the variation in quality was caused by impurities. The Ca and Cs cation-exchange capacities (CEC) varied from 2.67 to 8.17 and from 3.29 to 8.77 meq/100 g, respectively. Selective dissolution and correlation analyses strongly indicated that expandable 2:1 minerals, particularly smectite (1.2-5.9%), Were responsible for most of the observed variations in Ca CEC (r = 0.85*). The external surface CEC of kaolinite ranged from 0 to 1 meq/ 100 g. The positive significant correlation (r = 0.90**) between the Ca CEC and the K-mica content (0-3.9%) suggested that Ca CEC may be related to the degree of mica weathering through an expandable mineral stage.The Cs-retention capacity (0.19-1.14 meq/100 g) was closely related to Cs-measured vermiculite content (r = 0.80"), and this content plus specific surface (R = 0.93**) or mica content (R = 0.86*). The Cs retention appeared to be primarily related to the presence of interlayer wedges at mica/vermiculite XY interfaces.
