Popis: Uranium is known to easily form stable complexes with both organic and inorganic ligands in natural aquatic environments. The potential mobility of U(VI), and particularly the role of humic substances, has been investigated for a sandy podzol. Adsorption of U(VI) at equilibrium was experimentally investigated, comparatively for a pure quartz sand as well as a sandy podzolic soil from Landes Gascony, France, containing 0.6 wt. organic matter. Uranium is strongly retained by the bulk soil, mainly due to organic aggregates (
