    Brief

    Environment Agency Self-Service Direct Award. This opportunity focuses on understanding how excess phosphorus (P) accumulated in English soils over time mobilises and contributes to water pollution. Phosphorus is essential for crop production but is often over-applied through inorganic fertilisers and organic manures, leading to gradual soil accumulation. When this legacy phosphorus is released through runoff, erosion, and leaching, it contaminates watercourses and causes eutrophication—triggering algal blooms and oxygen depletion that harm freshwater ecosystems. Currently, approximately 55% of English rivers and 75% of lakes fail to meet phosphorus standards under the Water Framework Directive. This review seeks to examine the mechanisms, pathways, and scale of legacy phosphorus mobilisation to inform mitigation strategies and environmental protection measures.
