Fig. 2. General relative omnidirectional variograms of oxalate-extractable Fe (a) and Al (b) and a traditional variogram of the normal score values of the degree of phosphorus saturation (DPS) (c). In the construction of these variograms, we used 70 georeferenced locations across the study area with a unit separation that varied between 1200 and 800 m, with a lag tolerance of 600 to 400 m, and a bandwidth of 500 m.
