FIG. 10. Breakthrough curves calculated using the Two Kinetic Sites Model for a 10-cm-long soil column and the following parameters: solute pulse duration = 10 d, q = 5 cm d–1, {theta} = 0.5, {lambda} = 1 cm, Kd = 1 cm3 g–1, {rho}b = 1.5 g cm–3, ka1 = 1.5 d–1, kd1 = 0.5 d–1, and ka2 = 0.0, 0.3, and 3.0 d–1 with kd2 = 0.0, 0.1, and 1.0 d–1, respectively.
