Litterfall deposition in a Pinus stand
Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2012 Litterfall is the main responsible for maintaining forest stands yield in soils with low natural fertility. This study aimed to evaluate seasonal and monthly litterfall deposition in a Pinus taeda L.

Litterfall Production Of Mangrove
AGRICOLA, 2020 Mangroves are plants that live in tidal or interface areas between terrestrial and marine ecosystems in tropical and subtropical regions. Mangrove ecosystem is one of the coastal ecosystems that have a very important role, especially for organisms, namely as a supplier of nutrients produced by mangrove litter.

Litter Production Dynamic in relation to Climatic Factors in Tree Plantations [PDF]
Environmental Resources Research, 2014 We studied litterfall dynamic of tree plantations in Dez River floodplain, at 14 to 15 years old. The plantations consist of Populus euphratica Oliv., Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh., E. microtheca F. Muell, Acacia farnesiana (L.) Willd., A.

Heliyon, 2021 Litterfall is a critical link between vegetation and soils by which nutrients are returned to the soils, thus the amount and pattern of litterfall regulates nutrient cycling, soil fertility and primary productivity for most terrestrial ecosystems.

Distinct responses of soil respiration to experimental litter manipulation in temperate woodland and tropical forest [PDF]
, 2018 Global change is affecting primary productivity in forests worldwide, and this, in turn, will alter long‐term carbon (C) sequestration in wooded ecosystems.

Comparing Litterfall and Standing Vegetation: Assessing the Footprint of Litterfall Traps [PDF]
, 2012 Litterfall traps could preferentially represent certain kinds of leaf litter. Several factors may cause bias while sampling litterfall leading to overor under-representation of the species present in the surrounding vegetation. For example, species standing precisely above litterfall traps, having big and wide crowns, and/or with high leaf fall rate ...

Litterfall and Nutrient Input in a Degraded Area [PDF]
Floresta e Ambiente, 2017 ABSTRACT This study aimed to test the effects of fertilization with organic compost from industrial production of pulp on the litterfall and nutrient input of monospecific plantations in a loan area. The treatments consisted of three doses of the organic compost D10, D15 and D20 (10, 15 and 20 Mg ha-1, respectively), mineral conventional fertilization (

Potential net primary productivity in South America: application of a global model [PDF]
, 1991 We use a mechanistically based ecosystem simulation model to describe and analyze the spatial and temporal patterns of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) in South America.

Jena Soil Model (JSM v1.0; revision 1934): a microbial soil organic carbon model integrated with nitrogen and phosphorus processes [PDF]
, 2020 Plant–soil interactions, such as the coupling of plants' below-ground biomass allocation with soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition, nutrient release and plant uptake, are essential to understand the response of carbon (C) cycling to global changes ...
