Effects of sub-millimeter sca.e heterogeneity in chemica. a.d microbia. distributions on a.ra.ine degra.a.ion were exa.ined using Pseudomona. sp. stra.n a.P introduced into soil a. a.popula.ion mimicking a.ra.ine-a.a.ted soils (~2000 cells/g), a.d employing a.ra.ge of soil wa.er pressures (?100, ?300, ?500 kPa.. Heterogeneous cell distribution wa. employed in a.l trea.ments wherea. uniformity of distribution wa. a.va.ia.le for a.ra.ine introduction. Two methods of initia.ly distributing a.ra.ine in soil were exa.ined. Proxima.ly-a.plied a.ra.ine (Pa.) wa. intended to yield eleva.ed a.ra.ine concentra.ions in the vicinity of the degra.ers. Dispersed a.ra.ine (Da. wa. introduced to distribute the chemica. uniformly a. compa.ed to the distribution of degra.ers. Both ra.e a.d extent of degra.a.ion were grea.er tha. Pa., rega.dless of wa.er content, presuma.ly due to proximity of a.ra.ine to degra.ers. Biodegra.a.ion decrea.ed with decrea.ing wa.er content for both a.plica.ion methods, a.tributed to decrea.es in a.ra.ine’s effective diffusion. Minera.iza.ion of nea.ly 100% of Da.in soils receiving a.heterogeneous inoculum with a.grea.er cell density (~107 cells/g) indica.es tha. biodegra.a.ion wa. limited by the dista.ce a.ra.ine ha. to diffuse. Results support the hypothesis tha. enha.ced popula.ions of a.ra.ine degra.ers, a. reported elsewhere for a.ra.ine-a.a.ted soils, though heterogeneously distributed, ma. overcome bioa.a.la.ility limita.ions.
