This study was conducted to determine the effect of biosolids and lime on reclamation of a heavily contaminated metal site. Within the Superfund area near Leadville, CO, biosolids and lime were amended (1998) to a 1 ha site at rates of 240 Mg per ha each. In 2006, soil samples were collected on a 10 m x 10 m grid to a depth of 30 cm across the site. Basic soil analysis included pH, EC, total C and N, inorganic and organic C, and NO3-N and NH4-N. A sequential fractionation for metal contaminants of concern (Cd, Cr, Fe, Pb, Mn, and Zn) identified associations with: 1) soluble/exchangeable; 2) specifically sorbed/weakly bound; 3) non-crystalline Fe/Mn oxides; 4) crystalline Fe/Mn oxides and organically complexed; 5) residual organic; and 6) residual... |

Soil P transformations and distribution studies under water limited conditions that characterize many grasslands may provide further insight into the importance of abiotic and biotic P controls within grassdominated ecosystems. We assessed transformations between P pools across four sites spanning the shortgrass steppe, mixed grass prairie, and tallgrass prairie along a 400-mm precipitation gradient across the central Great Plains. Pedon total elemental and constituent mass balance analyses reflected a pattern of increased chemical weathering from the more arid shortgrass steppe to the more mesic tallgrass prairie. Soil surface A horizon P accumulation was likely related to increased biocycling and biological mining. Soluble P, a small fraction of total P... |
