متن کاملAlpine Phytomass and Primary Productivity in Central Otago, New Zealand

Seven tall snow tussock grasslands were compared with lower-statured cushion, herbfield and short grassland communities. Total phytomass ranged from c. 5-9 Kg m (22 000-40000 Kcal m) in tall tussock and c. 2-4 Kg m (8100-16500 Kcal m) in cushion, herbfield or short g...
