Implication

Spatial analysis reveals variable chemical properties in post-eruption volcanic soils, indicating that persistent pyroclastic deposition enriches future agricultural fertility.

Key Points

Volcanic soil pH remained predominantly acidic while basic cations stayed high across pyroclastic deposits, demonstrating substantial replenishment of essential plant nutrients.
Phosphorus retention reached 90% to 99% across the landscape, whereas exchangeable basic cations like potassium and magnesium maintained consistently favorable concentrations.
Regression kriging applied within digital soil mapping accurately modeled spatial variations, indicating that persistent eruptions supply vital plant nutrition across the region.
