The 6^th International Phosphorus Workshop (IPW6) will be celebrated in Seville from *September 27 to October 1, 2010. *This meeting constitutes an important forum for discussion of the main issues related to the loss of phosphorus from soil and its impact on the environment, especially the surface waters. The workshop is held every three years, the present one following those held in 1985 (Wexford, Ireland), 1998 (Antrim, Northern Ireland), 2001 Plymouth (UK), 2004 (Wageningen, The Netherlands) and 2007 (Silkeborg, Denmark).

· Agricultural P flows at global and regional scales as affected by agroecological and climatic changes
· Phosphorus dynamics/cycling at the pedon scale
· Processes of phosphorus mobilization at the field and catchment scales
· Measurement, monitoring and modelling of soil P loss and transport
· Water quality and ecology in relation to P status
