exchangeable calcium content in soil

marieALaporte commented 2 years ago

Need to create:

exchangeable cation: A cation that is capable of being readily substituted from the soil solution and onto the surface of a negatively charged soil particle, and vice-a-versa. (cf. http://www.terragis.bees.unsw.edu.au/terraGIS_soil/sp_exchangeable_cations.html)

Then apply pattern to create the concentrations of different cations in soil:

concentration of exchangeable cation in soil: The concentration of exchangeable cation when measured in soil.

concentration of exchangeable calcium in soil: The concentration of exchangeable calcium when measured in soil. ...

@celineaubert and I are wondering if 'exchangeable cation' should belong to ENVO or not, as it is something relevant only to soil. If yes, where should it go in the hierarchy? under the Chebi term cation, which means that then the parent term won't be an ENVO term? @cmungall @pbuttigieg
