- Title
SOLUBLE SALTS IN DUNE SANDS FROM BLAKENEY POINT IN NORFOLK.

- Abstract
The article presents a study on the soluble salts in dune sands from Blakeney Point in Norfolk, England. Ten soil samples were taken in each of the seven dune areas to a depth of 3 cm. The samples were mixed together and then dried to about 100 degree Celsius. The mixtures were shaken occasionally for a week and filtered with the use of Whatman 541 filter papers. It was found out that the total concentration of soluble salts is greatest in the embryo dunes near the sea with approximately twice the concentration in the sand hills that is a few yards farther from the tide mark.
