Mobilisation of Al, Fe, and DOM from topsoil during simulated early Podzol development and subsequent DOM adsorption on model minerals

Abstract Podzols are characterised by mobilisation of metals, particularly Al and Fe, and dissolved organic matter (DOM) in topsoil horizons, and by immobilisation in subsoil horizons. We mimicked element mobilisation during early podzolisation by irrigating the AE horizon of a Dystric Arenosol with...
