Influence of soil pH on inorganic phosphorus sorption and desorption in a humid brazilian Ultisol Influência do pH do solo na adsorção e dessorção de fósforo num Ultisol úmido brasileiro

Liming is a common practice to raise soil pH and increase phosphorus (P) bioavailability in tropical regions. However, reports on the effect of liming on P sorption and bioavailability are controversial. The process of phosphorus desorption is more important than P sorption for defining P bioavailab...
