Abstract:
The main objectives of this task are to quantify the decomposition of a mixture of litter with the plot-specific diversity, and to relate this information to tree diversity and environmental gradients across sites.
Design:
See sampling protocol: “Litter decomposition” for details
Spatial extent:
Romania - Rusca
Temporal extent:
This file contains the mass loss data for litter mixtures placed to decompose in July 2012 and collected in September 2013
