Development of soil phosphorus storage capacity for phosphorus retention/release assessment in neutral or alkaline soils

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2022
The concept of the soil phosphorus storage capacity (SPSC) was successfully used to evaluate the phosphorus (P) loss risk and the P retention capacity of acidic soil. This study extended the concept of SPSC from acidic soil to neutral or alkaline soil. A
