Mobility of Cd, Pb, Cu, and Cr in some Estonian soil types

The sorption capacity of selected heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Cu, Cr) to five Estonian soils was evaluated using spiked subsoil samples in laboratory experiments. The experimental sorption data fitted well to the linear Freundlich isotherm. The sorption of metals in subsoil depended on the soil type, e.g....
