The movement of phosphorus in soil is quite different. It is very insoluble and is easily converted toinsoluble forms when it combines with other ions. When phosphorus fertilizer is placed in the surface of the soil, it mostly stays there and only migrates into the soil a fraction of an in...
Different N and P fractions in microcosm incubation experiment was measured using high-resolution in-situ Peeper and DGT techniques combining with sequential extraction procedure. The results showed the synchronous desorption and release of PO 4 3- , S 2- and Fe 2+ from the solid soil-originated...
