Does specific parameterization of WHAM improve the prediction of copper competitive binding and toxicity on plant roots?

We aimed at assessing whether the binding and rhizotoxicity of metal cations such as copper that exhibit high affinity for plant roots could be adequately predicted using the Windermere Humic Aqueous Model (WHAM) default parameterization. Accordingly, we first compared the ability of the default parameterization of WHAM and a specific parameterization for terrestrial higher plants (WHAM-THP) to ...
