Abstract

This chapter investigates where and in what form phosphorus occurs on Earth. It describes the major geological dimensions of phosphorus. It measures the quantities extractable phosphorus occurs and explores the past and current trends of phosphorus usage; looks into the prediction of future trends and determines the reliability; and discusses the role of economics in phosphorus reserves, and how resources are geologically determined. It also explains the issue of the shortage of phosphorus.
