TLDR
The sorption of DOC (derived from mature wheat straw) was more strongly affected by SAR than by EC, andDOC sorption in salt-affected soil is more strongly controlled by CEC and Fe/Al concentration than by clay concentration per se except in sodic soils where DOC sorption is low due to the high sodium saturation of the exchange complex.About:
