Analysis of physical and chemical characteristics of Anthrosols—The case of former Bremen missionary’s settlement in Ghana

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Past settlement sites often relate to the accumulation of elements in Anthrosols. The analyses of Anthrosols can resolve specific queries on the estimation of element enrichment factors and their potential suitability for arable fields. We studied Anthrosols in the sub Sahara developed on a mid 19th century AD Bremen missionary settlement in the Volta Region, Ghana, aiming to compare the physicochemical properties with control soil unaffected by past settlement activities. The black colour of the Anthrosols contrasted with the brown Acrisols of the control on the same bedrock. The pH, contents of organic C, total (N, P, Ca, K, Mg, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn and Sr) and plant available Mehlich 3 (P, Ca, K, S and Mg) elements substantially increased in the 0 to 85 cm depths of the Anthrosols compared with the control. The Anthrosols are thus suitable for arable land use. Total K, Cu, Mn, Zn, Sr, Ca, Mg and Fe well indicated past settlement activities according to their significant correlations with P. Total and pl
