Estimation and signification of cation exchange capacity of cheliff saline soils [Algeria] for physical properties

ABSTRACT

Measurements of the cation exchange capacity [CEC] show significant soil properties, in particular its ability to retain the cations because of their mobility in the soil. Thirteen soil samples rich in electrolytes of the Cheliff plain [Algeria] were analyzed in order to measure their CEG and to draw up the existing relationship between texture, organic
