The concentration and mobility of elements in subalpine forest soils in Colorado and Idaho
Gary C. Curtin, Harley D. King, J. M. Nishi
1979, Open-File Report 79-710
Leaching studies of subalpine forest soils collected at seven sites in Colorado and Idaho show that copper, cobalt, chromium, magnesium, barium, tin, strontium, and yttrium are highly mobile elements in these soils; that zirconium, lanthanum, nickel, and scandium are moderately mobile; and that titanium is rather immobile. Furthermore, the results...
