To assess their importance for plant nutrition, we compared the P status of Stagnic Cambisol profiles in experimental plots that received different P fertilizer applications for 16 years. Sequential fractionation was combined with P K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy and liquid 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to identify the chemical P speciation. Fertilized topsoils showed P stocks larger by a factor of 1.2 to 1.4, and subsoil stocks larger by a factor of 1.3 to 1.5 than the control. P-XANES revealed the predominance of mainly inorganic P species, such as moderately labile Fe- (46 to $92\%),$ Al- (0 to $40\%)$ and Ca- (0 to $21\%)$ P compounds besides organic P (0 to $12\%).$ This was supported by 31P NMR with decreasing proportions of orthophosphate monoesters from topsoil (20 to $28\%)$ towards the second subsoil layer (7 to $13\%).$ In summary, fertilizer application maintained or increased P stocks but only slightly altered the P speciation throughout the profiles. The kind of fertilizers had no significant effect on soil P, only affecting the inorganic P pools. Our findings proved that subsoil P stocks are potentially important contributors to plant nutrition, but their accessibility must be assessed for improved soil P tests and reduced fertilizer recommendations.}, cin = {IBG-3 / ZEA-3}, ddc = {550}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118 / I:(DE-Juel1)ZEA-3-20090406}, pnm = {255 - Terrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction (POF3-255)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000424179300012}, doi = {10.1016/j.geoderma.2017.12.003}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/844592}, }
