SORPTION OF Sr$sup 90$ BY THE SOIL (in Russian)

Sorption of microamounts of strontium from solutions prepared of distilled water, calcium nitrate solution, and lake water as well as desorption of microamounts of strontium from soils by various concentrations of calcium nitrate were followed. Sr/sup 90/ was shown to be sorbed by any soils through an ion exchange mechanism. The degree of strontium sorption by soils as well as of desorption from soils depends on the quantitative ratio of exchangeable cations of the absorbing complex of the soil and of the soil solution. It is suggested that strontium migration in soils is effected by ion exchange reactions (sorption- desorption). (tr-auth)
