Data on litterfall production and meteorology at an old-growth tropical dry forest in northwestern Mexico

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
Chronological measurements of litterfall production can be used for understanding ecosystem dynamics such as net primary production and carbon cycling in highly seasonal ecosystems such as tropical dry forests (TDF).

Litterfall and Nutrient Input in a Degraded Area [PDF]

open access: yesFloresta 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]

open access: yes, 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.

Balancing litterfall and decomposition in cacao agroforestry systems [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Soil, 2022
Abstract Backgrounds and aims Litter protects the underlying soil, depending on litterfall and decomposition, but dynamics of the standing litter stock in agroforestry systems remain poorly understood. We aimed to unravel effects of litter quality, temporal patterns, microclimate, and a possible home-field advantage (HFA)

Phosphorus limitation of aboveground production in northern hardwood forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Forest productivity on glacially derived soils with weatherable phosphorus (P) is expected to be limited by nitrogen (N), according to theories of long-term ecosystem development.

Pattern of litterfall production and nutrient addition in soil through litterfall by different tree species: A review

open access: yesEnvironment Conservation Journal, 2023
Innutrient dynamics, an extremely valuable resource is litterfall. It is crucial to the dynamics of soil nutrients, the characteristics of soil, and the transfer of energy. In an agroforestry system, decomposition and litter fall are the two key processes that contribute to soil enrichment.

Spatial-temporal variation in litterfall in seasonally dry tropical forests in Northeastern Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2019
The production of litterfall is essential for nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. From November 2009 to October 2011, analyzed the monthly litterfall production in two areas of Caatinga, a type of Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest located in the ...

Temporal Variation of Litterfall and Nutrient Return of Serianthes nelsonii Merr. in a Tropical Karst Forest

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Trees contribute to ecosystem nutrient cycling through the amount, timing, and composition of litterfall. Understanding the nature of this contribution from endangered tree species may aid in species and habitat recovery efforts.
