They expected that zinc in worms would have a higher specific activity than in the plants and that the information would hint at the relative importance of pore water and soil exchangeable zinc pools to plants and earthworms.
Efflorescences are powdery encrustations of minerals that form on the surfaces of rocks by evaporation of their pore water.
In addition, there is a thin veneer of sediments covering the subducting plates, which contain large volumes of unbound pore water and water and carbonate-bearing minerals.
Groundwater flushing of pore water in the spring exported solutes to the estuary at rates similar to tidally driven surface exchange seen in previous studies.
Radium activity in pore water of wetland sediments often differs from the amount expected from local production, decay, and exchange with solid phases.
