The concentrations of five forms of phosphorus (P) including exchangeable or loosely adsorbed P (Ex-P), Fe-bound P (Fe-P), authigenic P (Auth-P), detrital P (Det-P), and organic P (Org-P) from the basin among the Marcus-Wake seamounts (19.4°–24°N, 156.5°–161.5°E) in the western Pacific Ocean were quantified using a sequential extraction method (SEDEX) to investigate the distribution and sources of different P species. Concentrations of total P (TP) varied from 14.0 μmol/g to 44.1 μmol/g, with an average of (32.4±7.7) μmol/g. Inorganic phosphorus, which was the major chemical form of sedimentary P, ranged from 12.6 μmol/g to 40.6 μmol/g, while the concentration of Org-P varied between 1.38 μmol/g and 5.18 μmol/g, accounting for 83.4%–93.4% and 6.6%–16.6% of the TP, respectively. The relative proportions of the five P species followed the order of Det-P>Auth-P>Org-P>Fe-P>Ex-P. On average, Det-P was the major P sink resulted from the atmospheric input and accounted for approximately 58.9%±12.4% of the TP. Auth-P and Org-P comprised 22.8%±11.4% and 11.5%±3.0% of the TP, respectively, while Fe-P accounted for 5.1%±2.6%. Lastly, Ex-P comprised 1.6%±0.3% of the TP. Org-P exhibited a negative correlation with Fe-P and Auth-P, while Fe-P showed a positive correlation with Auth-P. This indicated that the formation of Fe-P and Auth-P was at the expense of the regeneration or remineralization of Org-P during early diagenesis. High concentrations of Det-P and Auth-P as well as a low ratio of total organic C to reactive P (TOC/Rea-P) suggested that the aeolian input may play a significant role in sedimentary P budget in the study area. Additionally, well-oxygenated bottom water and low sedimentation rate could be responsible for the low TOC/Org-P ratio in the sediment.

1 Introduction
Less
Phosphorus (P) is an essential element in all organisms and plays a key role in various structural, genetic, and cellular components. It is an important nutrient, which limits the primary productivity through the photosynthesis of phytoplankton in the ocean. Notably, P also considerably affects climate change (Broecker, 1982; Reinhard et al., 2017), particularly on the geological time scale (Benitez-Nelson, 2000; Tyrrell, 1999). P is removed from the upper water column during photosynthesis, and subsequently settles down at the seafloor in the form of organic P. As phytoplankton and plankton die and degrade, portions of P before and after reaching the water-sediment interface are recycled back into the seawater and participate in the geochemical cycle again (Monbet et al., 2007). Thus, understanding the burial and diagenesis of P in sediment is essential to elucidate the geochemical cycle of this element.
Continental weathering of igneous and metamorphic rocks as well as soil is a primary source of P in oceanic P reservoirs. Moreover, rivers are the dominant means of transport of P from land to oceans. The riverine influx of P can be divided into the dissolved and particulate phases. The former accounts for 5%–10% of the total influx, while the latter for 90%–95% (Froelich, 1988; Ruttenberg, 2014). Riverine input of P constitutes approximately 50%–85% of the total P deposit on the continental shelf (Slomp, 2011). Furthermore, the atmospheric inputs, including volcanic ash, mineral particles, and aerosols, significantly contribute to the oceanic P reservoir. In open oceans, the flux of P entering the ocean via atmospheric deposition can reach 2×1010–5×1010 mol/a (Ruttenberg, 2014).
Previous research on the sedimentary P geochemistry have demonstrated that P occurs in different forms in marine sediments, such as exchangeable or loosely adsorbed P (Ex-P), Fe-bound P (Fe-P), authigenic P (Auth-P), detrital P (Det-P), and organic P (Org-P). It was also found that each form is involved in different geochemical processes. Various P phases can be transformed into each other during early diagenesis in a process named “sink switching” (Ruttenberg, 2014). This Ex-P is generally considered to be bioavailable through desorption process. Amorphous iron oxyhydroxide and iron oxides show the strong capacity of adsorption for phosphate (Berner, 1973). As a result, the iron oxides content in sediments is an important factor in regulating the P retention capacity of sediments (Zhang and Huang, 2007). Fe-P, remobilized in the oxygen-free environment, could be a source of Auth-P (Zhang et al, 2010). Authigenic carbonate fluorapatite is an abundant authigenic P phase formed by consumption of various P forms (e.g., Org-P and Fe-P) (Gächter and Meyer, 1993; Kujawinski, 2011; Ruttenberg and Berner, 1993). Organic matter is the major shuttle of P to sediments. During its degradation, phosphate is released into the porewater to undergo different biogeochemical processes, including adsorption onto particulates, binding to Fe-oxides, or incorporation into authigenic mineral lattice. However, P is ultimately buried as an authigenic carbonate fluorapatite. The decoupling of P and C is observed with sediment depth and age (Ingall et al., 1993; Filippelli and Delaney, 1996; Filippelli, 2001; Anderson et al., 2001). Det-P is generally believed insoluble and not readily bioavailable, highly connects with terrigenous input (Anderson et al, 2010). Different P forms display different biological and chemical reactivities and fates in the ocean. Hence, evaluation of the known P species is essential to provide insights into the geochemical processes of P occurring in marine sediments.
The sequential extraction (SEDEX) method has been widely employed to investigate the distributions of different P phases. Nevertheless, despite extensive research concerning the P phases in lakes and rivers (Acharya et al., 2016; Aydin et al., 2009; Berner and Rao, 1994; Eijsink et al., 2000; Fang et al., 2007; Jiang et al., 2011; Kang et al., 2017; Łukawska-Matuszewska and Burska, 2011; Yang et al., 2018), only few studies focused on open oceans, particularly the western Pacific Ocean. In this study, the abundances of five phases of P in surface sediments from the basin among the Marcus-Wake seamounts (hereafter referred to as BMW; 19.4°–24°N, 156.5°–161.5°E) in the western Pacific Ocean were determined using the SEDEX method to examine the distributions and sources of different P phases for better understanding the biogeochemical cycle of P in marine environments.

2.1 Regional setting
The study area is located North Pacific subtropical gyre where soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) was exhausted with concentrations of SRP were below 10 nmol/L (Garrison and Ellis, 2015; Martiny et al., 2019; Hashihama et al., 2009). Meanwhile, the concentrations of nitrate and nitrite (N+N) were generally below 5 nmol/L. Given both low concentrations of N+N and SRP with ratio of N+N to SRP less than 2, the region was overall nitrogen deficiency (Hashihama et al., 2009). The dust deposition had an impact on the region promoted N2 fixation. The model show atmospheric dust inputs to the ocean is 0.5–1 g/(m2·a) (Jickells et al., 2005). The occurrence of cold oxygen-rich Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) made the bottom water oxygen-enriched (Emery, 2001; Kawabe and Fujio, 2010). In addition, the sediments were low in organic carbon due to the oligotrophic nature of the euphotic zone (Kong et al., 2019). Extremely rare-earth elements and yttrium (REY)-rich mud containing 6 800×10−6 of ΣREY has been reported nearby and Fe-Mn crusts occur on the seamounts in this area (Iijima et al., 2016; Nishi et al., 2017).
2.2 Sample collection
Samples were recovered from the basin of the Marcus-Wake seamounts (19.4°–24°N, 156.5°–161.5°E) using a box-corer during the DY40B cruise onboard the R/V XIANGYANGHONG 10 during August 4 to October 20 in 2016 (Fig. 1, Table 1). The box-corer samples represented approximately the top 30–50 cm of the sediment. However, only the samples from the top 2 cm were used and stored frozen until further processing in the onshore laboratory. In the laboratory, the sediment samples were freeze-dried and ground into powder (<120 mesh, 125 μm) using an agate pestle and mortar. The prepared samples were used to measure the concentrations of different P species and total organic carbon (TOC). Among the collected sediment samples, BC1604 and BC1605 were light brown diatomaceous oozes, while others were pale to reddish-brown pelagic clays.
2.3 Sequential extraction and measurements
The extraction steps adopted in this work followed the modified SEDEX method previously described by Ni et al. (2015). The approach was largely based on the method developed by Ruttenberg (1992) and revised by Zhang et al. (2010). Extractions of P were performed at room temperature (~22–25°C). Sedimentary P was chemically fractionated into five operationally defined P species, i.e., Ex-P, Fe-P, Auth-P (including carbonate fluorapatite, biogenic Ca-P, and CaCO3-bound P), Det-P of igneous and metamorphic origin, and Org-P. Total phosphorus (TP) was calculated by adding all five fractions (i.e., TP = Ex-P + Fe-P + Auth-P + Det-P + Org-P). Reactive P (Rea-P) was defined as the sum of all non-detrital fractions (i.e., Rea-P = Ex-P + Fe-P + Auth-P + Org-P). And total inorganic phosphorus (TIP) is the sum of non-organic fractions (i.e., TIP = Ex-P + Fe-P + Auth-P + Det-P).
Extractions were conducted in 50 mL polyethylene centrifuge tubes using ~0.1 g of the freeze-dried sediment and 10 mL of the extraction solution (Table 2). Following each extraction, the sample was centrifuged and the supernatant containing the extracted P was manually analyzed by the standard phosphomolybdenum blue method (Hansen and Koroleff, 1999) using a Model-7230 spectrophotometer (Shanghai Precision Instrument Company). The same medium as the one used as the extraction solution for each P species was used to prepare the standard and blank samples. The modified chromogenic reagent was prepared to avoid interference from the extraction solution (e.g., bicarbonate-dithionite extracts of Fe-P) (Zhang et al., 2010). The acidic extraction solution was neutralized and pre-treated prior to the analysis by the phosphomolybdenum blue method. The detection limit for the extracted P was 8–10 nmol/L based on the replicate blank sample measurements using 5 cm cuvettes, with a precision of >2% (Ni et al., 2015). The detailed SEDEX procedures are summarized in Table 2. Each step was followed by successive MgCl2 (pH=8) and distilled water washes for 2 h at room temperature.
2.4 Measurement of sedimentary organic carbon
For the TOC analysis, ~0.2 g of the sediment sample was decalcified by reacting with 1 mol/L HCl. Following subsequent rinses with ultrapure water, the decalcified sample was freeze-dried. An aliquot of the sample (~20 mg) was used for the measurement of TOC on an elemental analyzer Thermo Flash EA 1112 (Milano, Italy). The precision of the TOC analysis was ±0.01%, as determined by replicate analysis of samples and Urea (Fluka, Buchs, Switzerland) as standard material.

3.1 Spatial variation of TP
The total extracted P concentrations were in the range of 14.0–44.1 μmol/g, with an average of (32.3±7.7) μmol/g. The highest concentration of TP was found at station BC1601, whereas the lowest at station BC1604. In diatomaceous oozes extracted from stations BC1604 and BC1605, the TP concentrations were determined at 14.0 μmol/g and 19.9 μmol/g, respectively. Notably, these were remarkably lower than those in the pelagic clay samples. The concentrations of TP in the surface sediments showed a spatial gradient with higher values in the southeastern part of the study area and lower in the northern part (Fig. 2).
3.2 Different P phases in the surface sediments
The Ex-P concentrations in the surface sediments varied between 0.19 μmol/g and 0.76 μmol/g, with an average of (0.52±0.12) μmol/g, which accounted for an average of 1.6%±0.3% of TP (Table 3). Moreover, Ex-P followed a spatial distribution pattern similar to that of TP, with higher values in the southern part of the study area. The lowest concentration of Ex-P was determined in the diatomaceous oozes at station BC1604 (Fig. 2). Furthermore, the Fe-P concentrations ranged from 0.38 μmol/g to 2.50 μmol/g, with an average of (1.58±0.76) μmol/g, which constituted an average of 5.1%±2.6% of TP (Table 3). Compared with the samples from the northwestern part of the study area, the Fe-P concentrations obtained from the southeastern was relatively higher (Fig. 2). The Auth-P concentrations varied from 1.74 μmol/g to 13.13 μmol/g, with an average of (7.26±3.68) μmol/g (Table 3).
As demonstrated in Fig. 3, Auth-P was the second largest pool of sedimentary P, constituting an average of 22.8%±11.4% of TP in the sediment of the western Pacific Ocean. The Det-P concentrations varied from 5.06 μmol/g to 26.43 μmol/g, with an average of (19.39±6.11) μmol/g (Table 3). Notably, Det-P was the largest reservoir of sedimentary P and constituted an average of 58.9%±12.4% of the TP pool. Lastly, the Org-P concentrations varied from 1.38 μmol/g to 5.18 μmol/g, with an average of (3.61±0.90) μmol/g, which accounted for an average of 11.5%±3.0% of the TP (Table 2). Compared to Fe-P and Auth-P, Org-P exhibited a reversed spatial distribution (Fig. 2).
3.3 TOC
Contents of TOC in the surface sediments varied from 0.22 wt.% to 0.32 wt.%, with an average of 0.28 wt.%±0.03 wt.% (Table 3). The relatively low TOC content here was attributed to the oligotrophic setting and lower primary productivity in the study area (Kong et al., 2019).
4 Discussion
Less
It is known that the distribution of P in sediments is predominantly controlled by sedimentary rate, redox condition, grain size, contents of organic carbon and Fe/Mn oxides, and sediment characteristics (Anderson et al., 2001; Babu and Nath, 2005; Łukawska-Matuszewska and Bolałek, 2008; Łukawska-Matuszewska and Burska, 2011; März et al., 2014). In most parts of the Pacific Ocean, concentrations of TP in sediment ranged from 16 μmol/g to 98 μmol/g, while in some regions, such as central and southeastern parts of the Pacific Ocean and a smaller region near the coast of Peru, the TP concentrations reached >98 μmol/g (Baturin, 1988; Filippelli and Delaney, 1996; Kyte et al., 1993; Moody et al., 1988; Murray and Leinen, 1993; Ni et al., 2015). The average concentration of TP (32.36±7.68) μmol/g in the study area was higher than those in offshore of China, Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) 130 and 138 in equatorial Pacific Ocean and the Saanich Inlet, less than central Pacific Ocean (Fig. 4).
The TP concentrations in diatomaceous oozes at stations BC1604 and BC1605 were lower than those in pelagic clays (Table 1). This is similar to the spatial variation of the total sedimentary P in the central Indian Ocean, where higher TP concentrations were detected in the pelagic clay area (Linsy et al., 2018). The high particle reactivity of P likely promotes its adsorption onto the surfaces of fine-grained particles, such as clays and oxides/hydroxides (Lin et al., 2016; Linsy et al., 2018). Compared with pelagic clays, diatomaceous ooze typically contains coarser grains, which may be responsible for low concentration of Ex-P and Fe-P compared with that of stations in vicinity with pelagic clay (Garrison and Ellis, 2015; Fig. 2). Due to higher sedimentation rates of diatomaceous ooze compared with pelagic clay (Seibold and Berger, 2017), the accumulation time of Det-P is shorter in diatomaceous ooze station as we taken the same top 2 cm of box-corer for sample analysis. By the same token, the time either the formation in situ or settlement of Auth-P is shorter. Thus, the concentrations of Det-P and Auth-P in diatomaceous ooze station was lower than pelagic clay. The relative proportion of different P phases in the BMW sediment follow the order of Det-P>Auth-P>Org-P>Fe-P>Ex-P (Fig. 2). Det-P is the largest P pool in the BMW sediment, exceeding 50% of the TP, with an average of 58.9% (Fig. 2). These results differ from those determined for sediments around the equatorial Pacific Ocean (Filippelli and Delaney, 1996). Generally, P predominantly enters the ocean via rivers and atmospheric transport, with the atmospheric/aerosol input prevailing in open ocean environments, especially within the northern hemisphere “dust belt” between ~10°N and ~60°N (Prospero et al., 2002; Maher et al., 2010). Kyte et al. (1993) reported that bulk surface sediments at site LL44-GC3 in the north central Pacific contained 95% eolian dust. Previous studies also described a large proportion of Det-P related to terrigenous input in the central Pacific Ocean and the Bering Sea (März et al., 2014; Ni et al., 2015; Zhang et al., 2010). Earlier studies revealed the combined effects of the Asian winter monsoon and the westerly jet stream, which delivered terrigenous materials originating from the Taklimakan Desert, Loess Plateau, and south Mongolian Gobi Desert to the north Pacific Ocean, where the terrigenous input is the dominant component of pelagic sediments (Chen et al., 2006; Jones et al., 2000; Miyazaki et al., 2016; Yasukawa et al., 2019; Zhao et al., 2015) (Fig. 1). Hashihama et al. (2009)’s research, based on the model stimulation, showed the area (20°–30°N, 150°–160°E) existed the spike of dust deposition which contributed to elevated N2-fixed as the result of iron supply in the region. Given the source of P in aerosols varied highly, solubility of P from different sources is greatly difference. Generally, solubility of P from mineral source is lower than particles form anthropogenic sources (Herut et al., 2002; Anderson et al., 2010; Shi et al., 2019; Herbert et al., 2018). The solubility of P in aerosols also may be related to specific P phases which have different susceptibility to dissolution (Anderson et al., 2010). Shi et al. (2019) studied phosphorus solubility in aerosol particles from westerly wind in China, and found total dissolved P constitute 21.3%±9.8% of TP in spring, the season particles mainly influenced by mineral dust form the arid and semiarid areas. And the part of soluble P may connect with anthropogenic sources (Anderson et al., 2010). Nenes et al. (2011) proposed solubility of P in aerosols increased with enhanced acidification intensity which correlated to ${\rm{SO}}_4^{2-} $ and ${\rm{NO}}_3^- $. And pH may be seldom above 4 in aerosols only when aerosol particles were to reside in clouds and were activated into cloud droplets. Thus, Det-P may be more resistant to experience transformation than Auth-P in aerosols, due to pre-extraction step using acetate buffer (pH=4, step 3) for Auth-P before Det-P extraction in SEDEX procedure. Flaum (2008) and Guo et al. (2011) found that Det-P and Auth-P were the dominant P species in the dust from the Loess Plateau and Gobi Desert, accounting for approximately 42.5% and 41.9% of the TP, respectively. They determined that the higher concentration of Det-P was associated with finer grain size, which was easily transported by wind to the ocean. The percentage of Det-P in the sedimentary TP of the BMW (on average 59.0%) was comparable to that of the Asian eolian dust, indicating that Det-P in the study area was mainly derived from the eolian input.
Auth-P was the second largest pool of TP in the BMW (Table 2). Earlier research demonstrated that in addition to in situ precipitation, atmospheric input also contributed Auth-P to the sedimentary P pool (Eijsink et al., 2000; Faul et al., 2005; Kraal et al., 2012; Ni et al., 2015). The processes of degradation and dissolution of P from the reactive phases mainly controlled the in situ Auth-P formation. In marine sediments, Auth-P precipitates in situ at the expense of other P pools, particularly from organic, loosely adsorbed, and iron oxide-bound P during early diagenesis. The released and dissolved P during early diagenesis reacts with calcium, fluoride, and carbonate within the sediment. Auth-P is formed when the concentration of P is above the threshold of precipitation (Froelich et al., 1988; Monbet et al., 2007; Paytan and McLaughlin, 2007; Vink et al., 1997). The BMW is located in the spreading path of the AABW (Fig. 1). Due to the oxygenated bottom water carried by AABW, the Fe-oxides in the surface sediments acted as competitors rather than contributors of P for upward-diffused interstitial water and effective adsorption of P (Emery, 2001; Kawabe and Fujio, 2010; Tsandev et al., 2012). Babu and Nath (2005) also established that the concentration of Auth-P was higher in the oxygen minimum zone than in oxygenated deep-sea sediments of the Arabian Sea. Hence, the oxygen-rich conditions of the BMW indicated that the in situ formation of Auth-P was not favorable.
The positive correlation between Auth-P and Fe-P (r2=0.64, n=20) in BMW indicated their common origin (Fig. 5d). There are two sources control the concentration of Auth-P. One is in situ formation. Though the environment is not favorable, the formation of Auth-P in situ played an important for P sink. P released form degradation of organic matter can transform into Auth-P and the low content of TOC indicated intense remineralization of organic matter. Considering the almost same contents of TOC, the burial of organic matters in sediments may have no significant differences in different station. Organic matter undergoes prolonged deposition in water column. In this process, P is preferential mineralization, and only left refractory organic matter settled in the seafloor. As shown in Figs 5a–c, the negative correlations of Org-P & Auth-P, Org-P & Auth-P, and Org-P & (Auth-P + Fe-P) indicated the in situ formations of carbonate fluorapatite (part of Auth-P) and Fe-P had been a certain extent to which P released from Org-P transferred into Auth-P and Fe-P, as Ruttenberg and Berner (1993) reported before. The deviation of the diatomaceous ooze samples from the major linear trend of pelagic clay samples may be caused by the high sedimentation rate and shorter diagenetic time (Fig. 3).
Still, in situ formation is only one factor conditioning the concentrations of Auth-P in this area. Atmospheric input significantly affects the concentration of Auth-P in open oceans (Anderson et al., 2010; Mahowald et al., 2008). Guo et al. (2011) reported different P phases in the sand particles from the western Inner Mongolia utilizing the SEDEX procedure. It was determined that Auth-P was the main component of the TP with an average concentration of 16.8 μmol/g. However, most terrigenous Auth-P was in the form of weakly soluble or not bioavailable P in seawater (Anderson et al., 2010). Shi et al. (2019) also reported that the solubility of P in aerosol particles was 32.9%±16.7% and 21.3%±9.8% based on samples collected in the winter and spring of 2013, respectively. Aerosol P is commonly bound to Fe-oxides or associated with Al, Mg, or Ca, which all exhibit poor solubility in seawater (Paytan and McLaughlin, 2007). In this area, the ratio of TOC/Rea-P was generally lower than 20 (Fig. 6), similar to the central Pacific Ocean and the central Indian Basin which both affected by terrigenous inputs carrying the calcium fluorapatite into the ocean (Ni et al., 2015; Linsy et al., 2018). And the concentration of Det-P was higher than most area presented in Fig. 4 with the exception of central Pacific Ocean. Hence, it was speculated that eolian dust might considerably contribute to the Auth-P pool in the BMW. This hypothesis is in agreement with a previous finding, which showed that 63% of the Auth-P was associated with atmospheric input in the central Pacific Ocean (Ni et al., 2015). There is no significant correlation between Auth-P and Det-P which may be caused for two reasons: (1) the nature of Auth-P, formed in either the arid-alkaline environment or low pH and moist soils which is different from that formed in marine sediments, may influenced the solubility of Auth-P (Anderson et al., 2010). Part of Auth-P from continent is soluble either in seawater or aerosols while Det-P may not. (2) Auth-P formed in situ by consuming P released from degradation of Org-P which may mineralized by microorganisms which may varied in different stations (Ruttenberg and Berner, 1993).
Org-P constituted the third largest pool of TP in the BMW sediments (Fig. 3) and contributed an average of 11.5%±3.0% to the TP. Organic matter is the major shuttle of P to sediment. During its degradation, phosphate is released to the porewater, which subsequently undergoes various biogeochemical processes (Filippelli and Delaney, 1994; Ingall and Jahnke, 1994). In an oxic environment, the most labile organic matter undergoes degradation within the water column, resulting in low Org-P and TOC content in sediments (Ni et al., 2015). That may have responsibility for low content of TOC. In addition, a weak correlation between TOC and Org-P suggested variations in the source and state of organic matter degradation (Ni et al., 2015).
The molar TOC/Org-P and TOC/Rea-P ratios in the sediments can be affected by the redox conditions and diagenetic redistribution of organic matter. In oxic oceanic environments, most of the labile organic carbon and P can be regenerated in the water column prior to reaching the sediment. This leads to a low Org-P concentrations (on average 3.6%±0.9% of the TP) and low TOC contents (on average just 0.28 wt.%±0.03 wt.% of dried sediment) in the sediments of the study area. It is noteworthy that previous studies determined that burial of Org-P is not the largest P sink in the deep ocean (Filippelli and Delaney, 1996; Delaney, 1998). In the present study, the TOC contents exhibited an overall weak correlation with the Org-P concentrations (Fig. 6). This was consistent with previous findings in the regions characterized by low TOC content and sedimentation rates (Ingall and Van Cappellen, 1990; de Lange, 1992). The molar TOC/Org-P ratio of the BMW sediments varied from 50 to 133 (an average of 68), with the highest ratios in diatomaceous ooze (Table 2). The lower ratios were consistent with other slowly deposited pelagic sediments, e.g., the TOC/Org-P ratios of 49–63 reported by Ingall and Van Cappellen (1990). Anderson et al. (2001) and Algeo and Ingall (2007) found that the TOC/Org-P ratios could reflect the redox conditions in bottom waters and sediments, since the TOC/Org-P ratios were lower than or equal to the Redfield ratio under oxic conditions, but higher than the Redfield ratio in anoxic environments. Higher organic C/P ratios indicated the preferential loss of P during early diagenesis and the degradation of organic matter. Furthermore, Ingall and Van Cappellen (1990) related the TOC/Org-P ratios to the sediment accumulation rate. It was found that the TOC/Org-P ratios were close to the Redfield ratio in areas exhibiting the lowest sedimentation rates due to the higher concentration of refractory Org-P in residual organic matter and/or organic matter produced in situ from bacterial biomass. Hence, the low TOC/Org-P ratios in our sediments (sedimentation rate of 1.79 mm/ka; Yang et al., 2020) were attributed to extensive degradation of organic matter, low sedimentation ratios in the area, and long exposure to oxygen.
The ratio of TOC/Rea-P could be affected by the original C/P ratio of the organic matter buried in the sediments (Anderson et al., 2001). The addition of Auth-P and Fe-P via atmospheric input increased the concentrations of Rea-P, which might have led to the low value of TOC/Rea-P.
In oceanic environments, the transport of P from the upper water column to the seafloor is predominantly in the organic form, with additional contributions from the detrital and authigenic forms as well as P bound to Fe (oxyhydr) oxides and that adsorbed on particle surfaces (Föllmi, 1996; Paytan et al., 2003). During their settling, various forms of sedimentary P, including loosely adsorbed, Fe-bound, and organic P, might be readily released to ambient water through desorption, reductive dissolution, and degradation. It was determined that in pelagic clay environments, below the carbonate compensation depth and at low sedimentation rates, most of organic P and P-associated biogenic carbonate particles were regenerated and dispersed into the water column during settling to the seafloor or surface sediments (Zhou and Kyte, 1992). Compared to other marine environments, the BWM appeared to display relatively low adsorbed-P, Fe-P, and Org-P concentrations (Fig. 6), indicating that most of the labile P could have been released into the water column during its long transport from the surface to the seafloor and/or during early diagenesis in the sediment.
5 Conclusions

The SEDEX method was employed to quantify the abundances of five different sedimentary P species in the basin of the Marcus-Wake seamounts and to investigate their sources and distributions. The relative proportions of different P species in the study area followed the order of Det-P>Auth-P>Org-P>Fe-P>Ex-P. The concentrations of TP varied from 14.0 μmol/g to 44.1 μmol/g. TIP constituted the largest proportion of the TP, varied from 12.6 μmol/g to 40.6 μmol/g and accounted for 83.4%–93.4% of the TP. Det-P was the major P pool in the BMW, constituted for 21.0%–75.7% of the TP. Moreover, Auth-P was the second largest P pool, accounted for 6.0%–54.6% of TP. The concentrations of Org-P and Fe-P in the BMW sediments accounted for 6.6%–16.6% and 1.3%–9.4% of the TP, respectively. Lastly, the Ex-P only constituted 1.3%–2.5% of the TP. In addition, concentrations of TP in diatomaceous ooze (stations BC1604 and BC1605) were lower than those in pelagic clays due to the higher sedimentary rates and coarser particles of the former.
Compared with other area in the Pacific Ocean, the basin of Marcus-Wake had relatively high concentration of Det-P, suggesting the atmospheric inputs influencing the sedimentary P. Furthermore, atmospheric inputs carrying terrigenous P-containing materials, as well as in situ formation, have both contributed to Auth-P sink in the area.
Overall, a low sedimentation rates and well-oxygenated bottom waters in BMW resulted in prolonged degradation of organic matter in the water column, eventually leading to a low TOC/Org-P ratio.
The study of different P phases could support the further research of mechanism of phosphatization of Fe-Mn crusts and strong correlation between REY and biogenic calcium phosphate (Tanaka et al., 2020).
