A climatic and taxonomic comparison between leaf litter and standing vegetation from a florida swamp woodland
(2009)
One method to determine past climate has been the use of leaf morphological characteristics of fossil leaves quantifi ed using modern climate and canopy leaf characteristics. Fossil assemblages are composed of abscised ...
Leaf litter and irrigation can increase seed germination and early seedling survival of the recalcitrant-seeded tree Beilschmiedia miersii
(Blackwell Publishing, 2019)
Although regeneration of recalcitrant-seeded tree species can be affected by prolonged drought, especially in Mediterranean regions, little is known about the response of such species to varying site conditions. A

More than the sum of its parts? Assessing litter heterogeneity effects on the decomposition of litter mixtures through leaf chemistry
(Springer, 2008-02)
Different components of functional biodiversity, such as functional type richness and composition, have been reported to affect the decomposition of litter mixtures. In spite of the numerous reports of these effects, ...
Leaf litter decomposition from native and non-native species in a freshwater forested wetland of Chile
(2017)
Decomposition of leaf litter is a fundamental process for the functioning of forested wetlands. The rapid increment of forest plantations has involved a greater contribution of leaf litter of exotic origin to these ecosystems. ...
Life between leaves on the Forest Floor
(Tobago News, 2010-07-09)
Decomposition and nutrient dynamic of leaf litter and roots from palatable and unpalatable grasses in a semi-arid grassland
(Elsevier Science, 2001-09)
A field experiment was conducted in a temperate semi-arid grassland of central Argentina to test the hypothesis that decomposition of and nutrient release from leaf litter and roots are faster in Poa ligularis and Stipa ...
Morphological patterns and community organization in leaf-litter ant assemblages
(ECOLOGICAL SOC AMER, 2010)
We present a new approach to determine the number and composition of guilds, using the hyperdiverse leaf-litter ant fauna as a model, based on appropriate morphological variables and species co-occurrence null models to ...
CONIDIAL FUNGI FROM Salix herbacea LEAF LITTER AND THEIR GROWTH TEMPERATURE PREFERENCES
(Universidad de Valparaíso, 2005)
Worlds apart: Location above- or below-ground determines plant litter decomposition in a semi-arid Patagonian steppe
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-08)
While considerable attention has been devoted to how precipitation modulates net primary productivity in arid and semi-arid ecosystems, the emergence of multi-faceted controls on carbon (C) turnover suggests that there is ...
