Fig. 1. Effects of biosolids application rates on soil sequential extraction Ba concentrations in the 0- to 20-cm depth, 2002–2003 crop year. Error bars represent one standard error of the mean (n = 4). Significant (P < 0.05) regression models are presented for the noncrystalline and crystalline Fe and Mn oxide phases.

Fig. 2. Effects of biosolids application rates on soil sequential extraction Ba concentrations in the 20- to 60-cm depth, 2002–2003 crop year. Error bars represent one standard error of the mean (n = 4). Significant (P < 0.05) regression models are presented for the soluble and exchangeable phase and the noncrystalline Fe and Mn oxide phase.

Fig. 6. Schematic illustrating biosolids-Ba addition (based on 26.8 Mg biosolids-Ba ha–1 2002–2003 soils data) to soil followed by release of a Ba–dissolved organic matter (Ba–DOM) phase, Ba-DOM movement and mineralization, and mineral precipitation in the soil surface and subsurface. EC = electrical conductivity; µ = ionic strength.
