Short summary
Our results unraveled how soil inorganic and organic phosphorus compounds respond to edaphic variables, climatic variables, and soil weathering stages as a proxy for pedogenesis at an unprecedented geographical scale. Soil P composition is determined by distinctive drivers that regulate key ecological processes governing their presence, transformation, and persistence on terrestrial natural ecosystems.
