  Project Abstract 1. Title Soil and Phosphorus - Integration 2. Objectives: Identify the relative contribution of the major variables, in three selected catchments that influence P loss from soil to water and integrate these with the results from the other relevant Group 2.1 and Group 2.2 projects in Euthrophication from Agriculture Sources (2000-LS-2-M2). Study the mechanisms of increasing P concentrations in water with increasing flow and the factors influencing this phenomenon under local environmental conditions. Integrate the results of the P load loss for the three catchments (results from 2.1.1a).
