Phosphorus Leaching From Naturally Structured Forest Soils Is More Affected by Soil Properties Than by Drying and Rewetting

Foliar phosphorus (P) concentrations in beech trees are decreasing in Europe, potentially leading to reductions in the trees’ growth and vitality. In the course of climate change, drying and rewetting (DRW) cycles in forest soils are expected to intensify. As a consequence, P leakage from the root z...
