This is measured through the cation exchange capacity.
2.
Biochar is shown to have increased soil cation exchange capacity leading to improved plant nutrient uptake.
3.
The total number of cations a soil can hold, its total negative charge, is the soil's cation exchange capacity.
4.
Nutrient leaching occurs more readily in a sand-based system because sand has a relatively low cation exchange capacity ( CEC ).
5.
Laterite soils have a high clay content, which means they have higher Cation Exchange Capacity and water-holding capacity than sandy soils.
6.
Laterite soils have a high clay content, which means they have higher cation exchange capacity and water-holding capacity than sandy soils.
7.
For sandstone with clay minerals, this assumption is no longer true in general, due to the clay's structure and cation exchange capacity.
8.
Fulvic acids have a higher cation exchange capacity and therefore have a higher chemical interaction with fertilisers and are able to form soluble chelates of trace metals.
9.
It should be noted that soil properties, such as organic carbon content and cation exchange capacity had significant impacts of the adsorption coefficients reported in the table below.
10.
The reason is that the former types of clay have larger specific surface areas ( i . e . the surface area of the soil particles divided by their volume ) and higher cation exchange capacity ( CEC ).
