The “Serpentine Syndrome” (H. Jenny, 1980): A Proxy for Soil Remediation
EQA, 2014 Serpentine soils have relatively high concentrations of PTEs (Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni) but generally low amounts of major nutrients. They often bear a distinctive vegetation, and a frequently-used approach to understanding serpentine ecology and related ...
