Fig. 2. Phosphorus sorption indices (PSI) and degree of soil phosphorus saturation (DPS) in the 0- to 2.5-cm soil layer at the microwatershed sites in the fall of 2003. Standard error bars are shown. Bars with the same letter above for that parameter are not significantly different (P < 0.05).

Fig. 4. Relationship between the degree of phosphorus saturation (DPS) in the 0- to 2.5-cm soil layer and the flow-weighted mean concentration (FWMC) of dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) and total phosphorus (TP). The equations and r2 values refer to the curvilinear relationships, which includes DPS values equal to and greater than the change points.
