What is Spatial Distribution Study of Phosphorus Forms in Lake Sediment about?

The objective of this work is the study of spatial variations of the different phosphorus forms, collected from 56 surficial sediment samples which were performed during four seasons in spring, summer, autumn 2013, and winter 2014, such as inorganic forms (Fe (OOH)-P and CaCO 3 -P) and organic forms (ASOP et ROP), in the retaining of Sidi Chahed dam (Morocco), as well as the elaboration of spatial distributions maps of these phosphorus forms by the use of geographic information system (GIS). To obtain more information on the correlations and the geochemical links that may exist between these forms on the one hand and between sampling stations and these forms on the other hand, we carried out a principal components analysis (PCA) and a factorial correspondence analysis (FCA) of the data collected on these phosphorus forms. The results of phosphorus extractions have shown that the sedimentary phosphorus is mainly in the inorganic forms (Fe (OOH)-P + CaCO 3 -P). These mineral forms represent nearly 88% on average of total phosphorus, with the predominance of the CaCO 3 -P fraction that represents almost 76%. However, organic forms (POSA + POR) represent only 12% of the total phosphoru
