Fig. 2. Comparison of measured adsorption Kd values for the Ultuna control plots with values predicted from Eq. [16] where ß = 1.422 L mmolc–1, pHref = 6.5, and a = 0.497. The r2 value of the regression is 0.93.

Fig. 3. Comparison of measured and simulated organic carbon content in sludge-amended soil, Ultuna, 1956–1997. The zero depth in the soil profile (marked by a dashed line) is given as the base of the topsoil in 1956, since the topsoil thickness changes with time.

Fig. 4. Comparison of measured and simulated increases in ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-extractable Cd contents in sludge-amended soil, Ultuna, 1956–1997. The zero depth (marked by a dashed line) is given as the base of the topsoil in 1956, since the topsoil thickness changes with time.
