The adso rbed phosphorus loss is one of the adverse effects of soil erosion

which results in not only the degradation of soil fert ility

but also the deterioration of water environment. The adsorbed phosphorus loss is recognized as an important part of non-po int source phosphorus pollution. Studying the adsor bed phosphorus loss by the investig ation of soil erosion is a commonly used method. This article summarizes the researches at home and abroad and analyzes the China. scurrent problems of adso rbed phosphorus loss together with soil erosion. Domestic study of soil erosion and adsorbed phosphorus loss doesnot match the requirements of practical applications. On one hand

there are the needs to increase number of experiments

enhance works on experiments

adhere to continuous monitoring

and deeply understand China's soil erosion and adsorbed phosphorus loss mechanisms. On the other hand

we should actively construct a model suitable to national circumstances

build the basis of information databases

and study the applicability and difference of foreign models.
