A question of litter quality

Nature, 1998
One aspect of how terrestrial ecosystems will respond to rising levels of CO2in the atmosphere is potential changes in the decomposition rate of leaf litter - a central factor in plant growth. It had been thought that the decomposition rate would decline in high CO2conditions, but this long-established hypothesis was laid to rest at a meeting in ...

Litter decomposition, climate and liter quality

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1995
Litter decomposition is controlled by three main factors: climate, litter quality and the nature and abundance of the decomposing organisms. Climate is the dominant factor in areas subjected to unfavourable weather conditions, whereas litter quality largely prevails as the regulator under favourable conditions.

Control of climate and litter quality on leaf litter decomposition in different climatic zones

Journal of Plant Research, 2015
Climate and initial litter quality are the major factors influencing decomposition rates on large scales. We established a comprehensive database of terrestrial leaf litter decomposition, including 785 datasets, to examine the relationship between climate and litter quality and evaluate the factors controlling decomposition on a global scale, the arid ...

Aphids decelerate litter nitrogen mineralisation through changes in litter quality

Ecological Entomology, 2013
Herbivorous insects may have significant impacts on litter decomposition through modification of plant litter quality and quantity. The effects of herbivorous insects on decomposition processes are of growing interest.

Effect of Litter Substrate Quality and Soil Nutrients on Forest Litter Decomposition: A Review

Acta Ecologica Sinica, 2013
Forest litter plays an important role in determining nutrient cycling, balance and maintaining ecosystem function of forest ecosystems. Studies have shown that litter substrate quality is one of the most important factors affecting litter decomposition in a given area.
