Fig. 2. Comparison of Ca(NO3)2extractable Zn in Blackwell contaminated soils, with and without amendments, and lethal Ca(NO3)2extractable Zn in artificial soil toxicity test (from Conder and Lanno, 2000). The dark line represents the Ca(NO3)2extractable Zn based, time-independent LC50 (incipient lethal level, ILL) calculated from the artificial soil Zn toxicity test conducted with the earthworm Eisenia fetida; symbols indicate lethal soilamendment combinations or artificial soils.
