Other claims from this paper (18)
- Observation Mineral N and P recoveries were 60–80%.
- Observation Ca, Mg and K recoveries were 95 to 111%.
- Observation Without plants, mineral N leaching loss was 75–76%.
- Observation Without plants, P leaching loss was 59–74%.
- Observation Without plants, Ca leaching loss was 5–7%.
- Observation Without plants, K leaching loss was 17–31%.
- Intervention effect Plants lowered N leaching loss by 9.3% on average.
- Intervention effect Plants lowered P leaching loss by 4.4% on average.
- Intervention effect Plants lowered Ca leaching loss by 0.5% on average.
- Intervention effect Plants lowered Mg leaching loss by 0.3% on average.
- Intervention effect Plants lowered K leaching loss by 1.3% on average.
- Intervention effect Liming tended to lower NH4-N, P, Ca and Mg leaching losses.
- Intervention effect Liming tended to raise K and NO3-N leaching losses.
- Observation Peat phosphate adsorption capacity was unmeasurable.
- Observation High pH and N rates produced significant ammonia fixation from added ammonium sulfate.
- Intervention effect Effective and unbuffered NH4Cl CEC more than doubled with liming as peat pH rose from 4.3 to 5.6.
- Intervention effect Conventional ammonium acetate and BaCl2-TEA CEC measurements were unaffected by initial lime rates.
- Method / resource Both conventional CEC measures greatly overestimated peat CEC at unbuffered pH.
