The Phosphorus (P) cycle is a crucial biochemical process in the earth system. However, an extensive increase of P input into watersheds destroyed the ecosystem. To explore the effects of internal P loading and external P input in global watersheds, we reviewed the research progress and synthesized the isotope data of experimental results from literatures. An integrated result of the observational and experimental studies revealed that both internal P and external P largely contribute to watershed P loadings in watersheds. Internal P can be released to the overlying water during sediment resuspension process and change of redox conditions near the sediment-water interface. Growing fertilizer application on farmlands to meet food demand with population rise and diet improvement contributed to an huge increase of external P input to watersheds. Therefore, water quality cannot be improved by only reducing internal P or external P loadings. In addition, we found that phosphate oxygen isotope technology is an effectively way to trace the P biogeochemical cycle in watersheds. To better predict the dynamic of P in watersheds, future research integrating oxygen isotope fractionation mechanisms and phosphate oxygen isotope technology would be more effective. |
