Available calcium in soils of the Northern Forest may become deficient from cumulative impacts of acidic deposition and harvesting. Little is known about the unavailable forms of calcium in soil minerals (rock) that may weather and resupply the soil calcium pool. What portion of total calcium content can be accounted for by available soil calcium and unavailable mineral calcium? How does this vary with depth in a soil weathering profile?
