  		Fig. 4. Effect of initial Cu2+ concentration on Cu2+ distribution coefficient (Kd) in the two red soils. RAR, red soil developed on Arenaceous rock (clayey, mixed siliceous thermic typic Dystrochrept); REQ, red soil developed on Quaternary red earths (clayey, kaolinitic thermic plinthite Aquult).

  		Fig. 5. Fractions of five successive extractions and residual Cu2+ in the total adsorbed Cu2+. The terms D1 to D5 represent the fraction of desorbed Cu2+ from each of the five successive extractions and the residual Cu2+ represents the fraction of adsorbed Cu2+ that is not recovered by the five successive extractions with 1 mol L-1 NH4Ac (pH 5.0). RAR, red soil developed on Arenaceous rock (clayey, mixed siliceous thermic typic Dystrochrept); REQ, red soil developed on Quaternary red earths (clayey, kaolinitic thermic plinthite Aquult).
