Leaf litter is an important mediator of soil respiration in an oak-dominated forest.
The contribution of the organic (O) horizon to total soil respiration is poorly understood even though it can represent a large source of uncertainty due to seasonal changes in microclimate and O horizon properties due to plant phenology. Our objectives were to partition the CO(2) effluxes of litter layer and mineral soil from total soil respiration (SR) and determine the relative importance of...
متن کاملInfluence of Terrestrial Molluscs on Litter Decomposition and Nutrient Release in a Hawaiian Rain Forest
The roles of terrestrial molluscs in many important ecosystem processes are largely unknown, particularly in tropical forests. It has been suggested from studies in temperate forests that snails/slugs contribute to litter decomposition directly (by their own metabolism) and/ or indirectly (by habitat modification enhancing micro-arthropod or microbial activity). Forty-two mesocosms were establi...
متن کاملForest composition, leaf litter, and songbird communities in oak- vs. maple-dominated forests in the eastern United States
Within the eastern deciduous forest region, forest composition varies, with some areas dominated by a mix of oaks (Quercus spp.) and other areas dominated by a mix of sugar maple (Acer saccharum) and other tree species. Prescribed fire is being used on an experimental basis to assess its effectiveness in restoring and maintaining oak-dominated forests. Maple-dominated forests are susceptible to...

15 صفحه اولOak contribution to litter nutrient dynamics in an Appalachian forest receiving elevated nitrogen and dolomite
Ecosystem nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and calcium (Ca) fluxes are affected by inputs of atmospheric N. Oak litter may additionally affect these fluxes because of its high-lignin content. We analyzed nutrient dynamics in ambient mixed-species litter in an aggrading hardwood stand at the Fernow Experimental Forest in West Virginia. We separated oak from the mix for analysis (oak) and compared i...
