Study

Citation
Soldat, D. J., Petrovic, A. M., & Ketterings, Q. M. (2008). Effect of Soil Phosphorus Levels on Phosphorus Runoff Concentrations from Turfgrass. Water, Air, and Soil Pollution.
Study description
To determine the relationship between the dissolved phosphorus concentration in runoff and extractable soil phosphorus from areas with turfgrass. Soil extractable phosphorus under turf areas was a poor predictor of phosphorus in runoff when Morgan-extractable soil phosphorus levels were 50mg/kg or lower.
