New cards

Element mobility

The higher the charge and the smaller the hydrated radius of a cation, the more strongly it will adsorb to the colloid

2
New cards

Order of adsorption strength

Al3+ > Sr2+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > Cs+ > K+ = NH4+ > Na+ > Li+

New cards

Uptake

Cation uptake occurs through release of acidity by roots

4
New cards

Input

Exchangeable cations replenished by weathering and mineralization of litter
