Short- and medium-term effects of three fire fighting chemicals on the properties of a burnt soil

The impact of three fire fighting chemicals (FFC) on 11 chemical soil properties and on soil recovery (0–2 cm depth) was evaluated 1, 30, 90 and 365 days after a prescribed fire. Five treatments were considered: unburnt soil (US) and burnt soil with 2 l m−2 of water alone (BS) or mixed with the foam...

Zusammenfassung:	The impact of three fire fighting chemicals (FFC) on 11 chemical soil properties and on soil recovery (0–2 cm depth) was evaluated 1, 30, 90 and 365 days after a prescribed fire. Five treatments were considered: unburnt soil (US) and burnt soil with 2 l m−2 of water alone (BS) or mixed with the foaming agent Auxquímica RFC-88 at 1% (BS+Fo), Firesorb at 1.5% (BS+Fi) and FR Cross ammonium polyphosphate at 20% (BS+Ap). At t=1 day, soil pH increases in the order US
