Decomposition and stabilization of the organic matter in an old-growth tropical riparian forest: effects of soil properties and vegetation structure

Abstract: Background: Nutrient cycling in tropical forests has large importance for primary productivity, and decomposition of litterfall is a major process influencing nutrient balance in forest soils. Although large-scale factors strongly influence decomposition patterns, small-scale factors can have major influences, especially in old-growth forests that have high structural complexity and strong plant-soil correlations. Methods: We evaluated decomposition rates and stabilization of soil organic matter using the Tea … Show more
