Process-based biogeochemical models are valuable instruments to monitor the P cycle and predict the effect of agricultural management policies. We upscale the calibrated DayCent model at European level using data-derived soil properties, advanced input data se...

We estimate the Phosphorus (P) budget from agriculural lands of EU and UK (c.a 173 million ha). This takes into account the P inputs (fertilizers, manure, chemical weathering, atmospheric deposition) and the P outputs (crop production, plant residues removal, ...

Global average phosphorus (P) losses due to soil erosion in kg ha−1 yr−1. Thus we combine the most recent spatially distributed global soil erosion estimates with global P content of cropland soils (data also available for P content)
