JR Simpson; CH Williams Australian Journal of Soil Research 1970. doi:10.1071/sr9700209

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Brief incubation at high moisture reduced plant phosphorus uptake from monocalcium phosphate.
Association At saturation, phosphate availability declined with incubation time up to four days.
Intervention effect Subsequent incubation at 100 cm tension did not reverse the decrease in phosphate availability.
Intervention effect Waterlogging usually had greater effects on air-dried than moist pre-incubated soil.
Intervention effect Preincubation at 100 cm tension progressively reduced iron release.
Intervention effect Preincubation at 100 cm tension progressively reduced subsequent phosphate immobilization.
Intervention effect Surface-applied phosphate responded to waterlogging similarly to phosphate mixed into soil.
