Long-term soil warming decreases microbial phosphorus utilization by increasing abiotic phosphorus sorption and phosphorus losses

Temperate forest soil warming (>14 years) increased soil phosphorus (P) losses and P sorption, reducing bioavailable P in soil solution and resulting in higher acid phosphatase activity but lower biotic phosphate immobilization and microbial biomass.
