In or Out of Equilibrium? How Microbial Activity Controls the Oxygen Isotopic Composition of Phosphate in Forest Organic Horizons With Low and High Phosphorus Availability

While there are estimates of the abiotic processes contribution to soil phosphorus (P) availability, less is known about the contribution of biological processes. Two main enzymatic processes involved in soil P cycling are known to alter the oxygen isotopic composition of phosphate (δ18O-P), each in...
