Abstract
Zinc desorption studied for ten soils was variance in calcium carbonate, clay percent, and organic matter from Duhok province in the north of Iraq involved (Bamarny, Zawita Assih, Semeel, Kanimasi-1& 2, Khanke, Zakho, Batofa, and Faydi, locations). Soil testers after air dried up ground and filtered through a 2-mm sieve was taken to know the properties of the soils, zinc forms and desorption. Results showed the soluble, available, exchangeable and zinc total alternated among (0.29 - 0.94), (0.88 - 1.64), (1.71 - 2.05), and (12.25 - 56.15) mg.kg−1 one-to-one, Zn desorption raise with the raising of Zn added to research soils, extraction concentration CaCl2 from 0.1 to 1 molarity and temperature. Higher quantity of Zn release at 298K, was found in the soil of Kanimassi-1 (31.40 - 264.81) μg. g−1 at 0.1M, 1M CaCl2 extraction respectively, it may be owing to the high value of available phosphorus, CEC and organic matter and lower quantity of available-Zn and CaCO3. But the lowest amount observed in Faydi soil (14.10-118.69) μg. g−1. The high desorption of Zn at 321K, noted in Faydi soil between (50.50 - 421.00) μg. g−1 and low amount in Semeel soil between (26.35 - 222.10) μg.g−1 at 0.1 to 1M CaCl2 extraction respectively, designated Zn released more with increasing temperature. In general low quantity of Zn releases as of all researched soils causes to the great amount of CaCO3, quality and amount of clay minerals dominant that cause raise Zn bonding also low desorption from all studied soils. The effect of CaCl2 extraction concentration to increase Zn desorption was more than the effect of temperature in all soils.
