Dataset for watershed-scale phosphorus leaching, soil phosphorus fractions, and hydrologic

Three Excel files support a study on phosphorus leaching risk and mechanisms in an agricultural catchment. The data includes in situ leachate monitoring results, soil phosphorus fractionation, and relevant soil physicochemical properties. Hao Wu published the dataset on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license, with a last update in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Model watershed-scale phosphorus leaching risk based on in situ leachate monitoring data.
• Analyze soil phosphorus availability and mobility based on soil P fractionation data.
• Investigate relationships between soil physicochemical properties and phosphorus retention/transport.
• Compare phosphorus leaching behavior across different land-use types within the catchment.

Strengths

• Dataset is structured into three distinct, logically separated Excel files for different data types.
• Data is explicitly collected to examine joint influences of long-term P accumulation, fraction composition, and soil properties.
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license allowing reuse and modification.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small at 36.2 KB, indicating limited scope.
