Chemical reactions in the soil solutions of Cu, Cd, and Hg are also influenced by the soil’s physical properties (Chen et al.2018; Maar et al.2018; Yang et al.2017). In general, the study areas in Grand Forest Park, Ngatabaru, and Poboya had relatively similar organic materials, vo...
Chemical elemental analysis of the solid matrix Solid samples were first air-dried in the laboratory at a temperature of 25 °C to minimise the loss of Hg due to its easy volatilisation. Then, each dried sample was sieved at 2 mm and finely ground in tungsten carbide mills. For the dete...
Application of chemical compounds can increase the effectiveness of the process (Meers et al. 2005). The role of these substances is to desorb metals from soil matrix into the soil solution, thereby facilitating metal transport into the xylem and increasing the translocation from below to ...
