Abstract

By use of a multi-site surface complexation model, Duputel et al. (2013) showed that citrate can decrease the solubility of phosphorus in soils, in contrast to what is commonly expected. We have identified several major errors in their model, which put the conclusions in doubt. We argue that major re-evaluation of their modelling approach is needed. (c) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
