A method using miniaturized arrayed DGT-probes (PADDI) for high-frequency in situ sampling with LA-ICPMS and CID analysis was developed to measure the field-scale heterogeneity of trace-element bioavailability. Robust calibrations (R² > 0.99) combined with high-sensitivity (LOD = 0.35 ng cm^–2), multielemental detection, and short measurement times were achieved using a new LA-ICPMS microDGT analysis. In the studied paddy-site (size: ∼2500 m²), total element concentrations across the field were approximately uniform (R.S.D. < 10%), but bioavailability was shown to vary significantly as determined from 864 microgel measurements housed within 72 PADDI arrays. Porewater As measurements were unable to differentiate the top/rhizosphere and bulk/deeper-soil layers. However, dynamic sampling with DGT revealed significant differences. Heterogeneity behaviors varied greatly between the different …
