Riparian leaf litter decomposition on pond bottom after a retention on floating vegetation
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Allochthonous (e.g., riparian) plant litter is among the organic matter resources that are important for wetland ecosystems. A compact canopy of free‐floating vegetation on the water surface may allow for riparian litter to remain on it for a period of ...
