Measuring Nitrate Leaching in the Vadose Zone of Loess Soils—Comparison of Batch Extraction and Centrifugation

The nitrate concentration in the subsoil moisture of the vadose zone is an important indicator for future groundwater quality, which is classically determined via centrifugation. Batch extraction is an inexpensive and easy alternative method, but whether these methods measure the same soil water, ni...
