Litterbag decomposition study, BCEF LTER sites, 1989-1997

This study is designed to estimate the time transient for decomposition of new litter and changes in its chemical composition. The study is designed to last for 10 years. It is conducted in each of the replicate sites that comprise the upland and floodplain successional sequences at the BNZ LTER site.本研究旨在探究新鲜凋落物分解的时间动态及其化学组成变化，研究周期设定为10年。该研究于BNZ长期生态研究（Long-Term Ecological Research, LTER）站点内的各重复样地开展，这些样地涵盖了高地与河漫滩演替序列。
