The 14 pages that link to Leaching, each with the reason it gives.

• Soil fertilityRelated: It can remove soluble nutrients from the root zone and reduce fertility.

• Groundwater contaminationRelated: Rainwater can leach pollutants from the land surface into groundwater.

• Soil formationRelated: It removes some materials from upper layers and deposits them deeper in the profile.

• Hazardous wasteRelated: Leaching can carry hazardous constituents from waste into soil and groundwater.

• SalinizationCompared with: Unlike salt accumulation, adequate leaching carries salts below the root zone.

• Soil contaminationRelated: Leaching can carry contaminants from soil into groundwater.

• LateriteRelated: Heavy rainfall carries away silica and other mobile constituents during laterite formation.

• Pesticide residueRelated: Leaching carries some pesticide residues toward groundwater.

• Container gardeningRelated: Water draining from containers can carry away nutrients and dissolved salts.

• Supergene enrichmentRelated: Weathering water dissolves metals from the upper part of a deposit.

• Bisphenol ARelated: BPA can migrate from some plastics and resins into food or drink.

• Forest soilRelated: Rain can carry nutrients and acids from forest surface layers into deeper horizons.

• ChernozemCompared with: Compared with strongly leached soils, many chernozems retain bases and carbonate at depth.

• Aquaculture feedRelated: Nutrients that leach from uneaten pellets become unavailable to animals and add to water pollution.
