Abstract: Solute contents in the vadose zone of limestone strata on Miyako Island of the Ryukyu Archipelago in Japan were measured by means of electrical conductivities (EC) of the extracted solutions of limestone core samples. A vertically nonuniform distribution of solute content was observed, which should lead to temporal variations of solute concentratio... Show More
