This study focuses on five typical lakes in cold-arid areas, analyzing the phosphorus pool capacity and phosphorus migration dynamics of sediments using methods such as phosphorus fractionation, diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT), and the DGT Induced Fluxes in Sediments model (DIFS). Partial least squares path modeling (PLS-PM) was further employed to identify the key driving factors for the endogenous phosphorus pool capacity and migration dynamics in these lakes. The results showed that the average values of total phosphorus (TPw), total nitrogen (TNw), and nitrogen-to-phosphorus ratio (TNw/TPw) in the water of the five lakes were (0.81 ± 1.31)mg/L, (3.40 ± 1.87)mg/L, and (26.13 ± 22.75), respectively, indicating that these were phosphorus-limited lakes. The average total phosphorus (TPs) content in surface sediments was (763.48 ± 563.70)mg/kg, with calcium-bound phosphorus (Ca-P) accounting for 51.09% of the TPs. The comprehensive pollution index (FF) values for sediments indicate a severe pollution level. The biologically available phosphorus (BAP) dissolved active phosphorus (CDGT-P), and distribution coefficient (Kd) average (193.54 ± 55.94)mg/kg, (0.19 ± 0.14)mg/L, and (11.34 ± 9.29)cm3/g, respectively. All three indicators of phosphorus pool capacity were lower than those in lakes of the eastern plains, reflecting a relatively low phosphorus reservoir capacity in cold and arid lakes. The DIFS model shows that the reaction time (Tc) of the five lakes ranges from 0.004 to 74, 170s, lower than that of lakes in the eastern plains, indicating slower phosphorus migration dynamics and a relatively lower supply rate to the water body. PLS-PM analysis reveals that the primary factor influencing phosphorus reservoir capacity in these lakes was sediment properties (0.64,P<0.05). The main factor influencing phosphorus migration dynamics (0.95, P<0.05) was the environmental conditions of the water bodies, with limited influence from lake trophic state and phytoplankton.
