A phase diagram for Ca-and Fe-bound phosphate has been calculated based on two criteria: a) the adsorption of ortho-phosphate onto iron hydroxide b) the solubility product of apatite as measured in two hard water rivers. The phase diagram explains why ortho-phosphate (o-PO 4 ) in sediments, contain
