Fig. 5. Plots of the percentage of soil redox (Eh) measurements (49 measurements made fortnightly between August 1992 and July 1994) to fall below 150 mV, the approximate redox potential at which TcVII is likely to be reduced to TcIV at soil pH values of between 6 and 8. The vertical lines represent water table depths in shallow and deep lysimeters (35 and 65 cm, respectively).
