- Intervention effect The 2- and 4-kg Cd rates reduced tobacco dry weight on the Norfolk soil.
- Observation Cadmium concentration in tobacco leaves was highest in the lower leaves and decreased up the stalk.
- Intervention effect At the 2-kg Cd rate, liming reduced leaf Cd concentration in only three soils.
- Intervention effect Liming reduced the effects of Cd loading rate and soil type on Cd concentration in tobacco.
- Association In organic and mineral soils combined, leaf Cd and Cd removal are best related to the Cd sorptive capacity of the soils.
- Association In mineral soils, sand content, Fe o and pH dominated the regression models of tobacco Cd.
- Method / resource Model-calculated values differed from actual values by only ±4%.
- Method / resource The models are useful for ranking southeastern US soils by their capacity to retain Cd.
- Observation Soil cation exchange capacity did not appear in any of the regression models.
