Author's personal copy Roles of sorption and tube-dwelling benthos in the cycling of phosphorus in Bering Sea sediments

a b s t r a c t Adsorption of dissolved phosphate onto iron-hydroxides has been shown to be one of the primary regulators of phosphorus cycling in sediments. Bioturbation and bioirrigation by benthic infauna modify this cycling by accelerating the transport of dissolved and particulate phosphorus an...
