Abstract

In many forest ecosystems, plant-available pools of Mg, Ca, and K are assumed to be stored in the soil as exchangeable cations adsorbed on the cation exchange complex (exchangeable pools). However, between soil minerals and exchangeable cations exists a gradient of Mg, Ca, and K storage forms that have not been fully characterized and may play an important role in plant nutrition and biogeochemical cycles. We hypothesize that sources of Mg, Ca, and K in the soil other than the conventionally measured exchangeable pools are plant-available on very short time scales (
