<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The sorption of iodide was reduced when soil was dried before equilibration with an iodide solution. With undried soils, sorption continued for > 48 h, maximum sorption occurred at pH values < 5 but a secondary sorption peak occurred at pH 8.5 to 9.0, particularly with a soil containing a high level of organic matter. Temperature had only a small effect on sorption over the range 10 to 35 °C.</jats:p><jats:p>Maximum values for the sorption of iodide by two surface soils (0 to 10cm) at pH 6.6 to 6.8, assessed with a soil: solution ratio of 1:10, an equilibrium time of 40 h and at room temperature, were 25 and 6 <jats:italic>fig</jats:italic> I/g soil, respectively. The amounts of iodide sorbed by these soils, and by soils taken from successive 10 cm layers to a depth of 40 cm at the same two sites, were closely related to the contents of organic matter in the soils but not to contents of iron or aluminium oxides or of clay. Treatment of the surface soils with hydrogen peroxide to destroy organic matter greatly reduced the sorption of iodide at the pH of about 5.5 that resulted from the treatment. The removal of iron and aluminium oxides with Tamm reagent also resulted in a marked reduction in sorption at pH < 5.</jats:p><jats:p>The results indicate that sorption was due in part to soil organic matter and in part to iron and/or aluminium oxides. At pH > 6, organic matter appeared to be the major sorbing constituent but under more acid conditions the oxides appeared to be increasingly important.</jats:p>
