Sediment phosphorus (P) is an active component of the P cycle in lakes and its availability and movement could play an important role in eutrophication. Sediments from different depths in five representative sites of Dianchi Lake China, i.e., Haigeng, Dounan, Luojiacun, Xinjie, and Kunyang, were studied from January to December to evaluate the spatial and temporal dynamics in available-P and soluble-P and their impacts on algal growth. The results showed that the average sediment available-P and soluble-P were 41.2 mg kg and 0.27 mg kg, respectively. Sediment available-P and soluble-P concentrations varied significantly among seasons, sites, and layers, with the following order: surface (0-5 cm) > middle (5-10 cm) > bottom (10-20 cm). The release and transformation characteristics of available-P and soluble-P at the sediment-water interface varied among sites. The Haigeng site, with the most severe algae blooms, had significantly higher average available-P and soluble-P in sediment than other sites. This indicated that phosphorus release and availability were associated with algal growth, and that the sediment surface (0-5 cm) is an important internal source that supports algal growth in Dianchi Lake.

Phosphorus (P) loss from soils can contribute significantly toward P enrichment in water bodies, impairing water quality. Application of soil amendments is a viable strategy to decrease soluble P in surface soils. Since soluble P is reduced through different mechanisms that are amendment-specific, blended amendments could be a better approach than single amendment applications; however, very little information is available on blended amendment effects in reducing P loss from soils.

Dairy manure, a significant source of phosphorus (P), can potentially cause environmental risk due to P runoff when dairy manure is directly applied to cropland. Thus, there is an increasing interest in mitigating P loss from manure prior to land applications. This study aimed to investigate the potential of hydrochar produced by hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) for P recycling from dairy manure with and without the addition of CaO, focusing on the plant bioavailability, stabilization, and transformation of P in the resultant hydrochar.

Understanding of soil phosphorus (P) transformation is crucial to minimize its edge-of-field loss associated with ecosystem disservices. A sequential chemical extraction procedure was used to assess the impact (42 years) of organic and chemical fertilizations on soil P partition and distribution under subtropical rice based cropping systems. Experimental treatments were control, N, NP, NK, NS, NZn, NPK, NSZn, NPKSZn, and N+FYM (farmyard manure).

Pyrolysis is an effective method for treating of livestock and poultry manure developed in recent years. It can completely decompose pathogens and antibiotics, stabilize heavy metals, and enrich phosphorus (P) in biochar. To elucidate the P migration mechanism under different pig manure pyrolysis temperatures, sequential fractionation, solution P nuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure techniques were used to analyze the P species in pig manure biochar (PMB).

Regulating phytoplankton-available suspended particulate phosphorus (P) to control internal P pollution in lake: Conclusion from a short review.

The necessity on controlling internal P pollution has been widely reported for lake restoration; thus far, cutting the migrations of soluble P from sediment to overlying water, especially under anoxic condition, is the main target of the internal P pollution control to achieve favorable ecological responses in lake. Here, according to the types of P directly available by phytoplankton, phytoplankton-available suspended particulate P (SPP) pollution, which mainly occurs under aerobic condition and due to sediment resuspension and soluble P adsorption by suspended particle, is found to be the other kind of internal P pollution. The SPP has long been a key index for environmental quality assessment, which could be indirectly reflected by the developed various methods for phytoplankton-available P pool analysis; also, the P has been demonstrated to be a major cause of phytoplankton breeding, typically in shallow lakes.
