Generally there is a measure using the ratio of concentration of Br and organic carbon in soils. So is it possible to consider organic matter content regardless of organic carbon.
Would you like to explain the distinction you are making between C and OM?
Br has a significant positive correlation with exchangeable calcium and organic carbon, especially in calcareous soil. The Br content in soil varies from 5 to 40 mg kg-1
(Kabata-Pendias 2001).
Sedimentary rocks contain relatively high concentration of Br commonly associated with detrital organic material. Organic matter accumulate Br, and a strong correlation of Br with organic C in soil has been reported by Kabata-Pendias, 2001. It has significant correlation with exchangeable Ca and organic C as Dr, Malhotra already mentioned. I suggest to go through the attached file .
Thank you. I want to know the possible relationship between Br and Organic matter (not Organic C) in sediments which are found in lagoon environments.
