Phosphorus (P) limitation of aboveground plant production is usually assumed to occur in
tropical regions but rarely elsewhere. Here we report that such P limitation is more …

Repeated applications of phosphorus (P) fertilizers result in the buildup of P in soil
(commonly known as legacy P), a large fraction of which is not immediately available for …

Organic carbon (C) is often applied to agricultural soils to increase soil organic matter,
however, its mechanistic effects on soil P transformations and availability resulting from …

South China has been experiencing very high rate of acid deposition and severe soil
acidification in recent decades, which has been proposed to exacerbate the regional …

Elevated nitrogen (N) deposition may exacerbate soil phosphorus (P) limitations in P-
deficient subtropical forest ecosystems. However, which abiotic factors predominantly …

Land use change has a significant effect on soil nutrient cycling. However, data on soil
phosphorus (P) fractions following land use change are scarce, especially in the subalpine …

Most phosphorus (P) in soils is unavailable for direct biological uptake, as it is locked within
primary or secondary mineral particles, adsorbed to mineral surfaces, or immobilized inside …

Soil phosphorus (P) fractions are critical for understanding soil P dynamics and availability.
This paper provides a global dataset of soil P fractions separated by the Hedley method. The …

Ecological stoichiometry, a novel method for predicting nutrient cycling rates in different
habitats, represents the demands of an organism for natural resources and links different …

The large-scale conversion of natural forests to plantations profoundly alters the
accumulation and transformation of soil nutrients. However, our understanding of how soil P …
