  • mixed-bed ion-exchange resin bags
  • nylon stockings (H-OH form, # R231-500; Fisher Scientific International Inc., Pittsburgh, PA, USA)
  • Lachat AE Flow Injection Autoanalyzer (Lachat Quikchem 8000; Hach Corporation, Loveland, OH)

Output Measurements

  • soil NO3-N availability
  • soil NH4-N availability
