 note = {Sorption behavior of tin (Sn) in Japanese agricultural soils was studied. Soil-soil solution distribution coefficient (Kd) of Sn (Kd-Sn) for 142 soil samples ranged between 128-1 590 000 (L/kg) with the geometric mean of 12 400 (L/kg). The Kd-Sn values for Andosol tended to be higher than those of the other soil groups. Among the relationships between Kd-Sn values and soil properties, a high correlation was observed for soil active Al (Al-(hydr)oxide and Al-humus complex) amount and Kd-Sn. The pH effect on Sn sorption was also investigated. The results suggested that the low pH condition enhanced the Sn sorption in soils. The soil-sorbed Sn fractions in each type of soil material were also evaluated with selective extraction methods. The results showed that most of the soil-sorbed Sn was as organic matter-bound or Al/Fe-(hydr)oxide-bound forms.},
