Abstract
Phosphorus (P) adsorption characteristics of 5 soil samples were studied in soils of Omidie, Southeastern Iran, during 2009/2010 cropping season. Some soil properties as well as selected P-adsoption characteristics were studied in these soils. In this study, results show Langmuir adsorption isotherm had better match with adsorbed P data and maximum R-square. Differences in P- adsorption were greatly influenced by soil organic carbon (SOC), soil pH, exchangeable calcium and exchangeable aluminium. Regression analysis showed that SOC and Al sat were the highest predictors of Padsorption in soils of the study site. There is need for inclusion of more soil chemical, physical and mineralogical properties in predicting soil Padsorption to enhance reliability of information.
