Abstract
The article examines the theoretical basis for using measurements of metal uptake by the technique of diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) to mimic processes in soils that affect uptake of metals by plants. The uptake pf metals by plants and DGT were compared conceptually and quantitatively using the Barber model of plant uptake and the DGT-induced fluxes in soils model of uptake by DGT. According to the authors of the study, DGT is likely to emulate supply processes from the soil that govern uptake of metal by plants.
