Modeling the toxicity of copper and zinc salts to wheat in 14 soils

TL;DR: To quantify the effects that soil physicochemical properties have on various ecotoxicological endpoints, including phytotoxicity, 14 agricultural soils from Australia with differing soil properties were spiked with copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) salts and used to conduct plant growth inhibition tests using wheat in pot trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

A field investigation of solubility and food chain accumulation of biosolid-cadmium across diverse soil types

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the solubility and bioavailability of Cd in biosolids to soluble Cd salts, and found that Cd partitioning between soil and soil solution was equal to or greater than that of soluble cd salts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of phytotoxicity data to a new Australian soil quality guideline framework for biosolids.

TL;DR: This study proposes a new framework to derive SQGs and guidelines for amended soils and uses a case study based on phytotoxicity data of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) from field studies to illustrate how the framework could be applied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Models for the field-based toxicity of copper and zinc salts to wheat in 11 Australian soils and comparison to laboratory-based models.

TL;DR: This paper presents the first field-based phytotoxicity relationships between wheat grown at 11 Australian field sites at which soil was spiked with copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) salts and found the best relationships estimated toxicity within a factor of two of measured values.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioavailability of zinc and copper in biosolids compared to their soluble salts.

TL;DR: This work compared the bioavailability of Cu and Zn in biosolids with those of metal salts in the same soils using twelve Australian field trials and recommended using isotope dilution methods to assess differences in Cu availability between biosolid and salt treatments.
