- Title
Wood decomposition: Nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics in relation to extracellular enzyme activity.
- Authors
Sinsabaugh, R.L.; Antibus, R.K.
- Abstract
Analyzes extracellular enzyme activity to clarify the mechanisms that link decomposition rates to substrate quality and nutrient availability. Study on arrays of white birch sticks at eight upland, riparian, and lotic sites on a forested watershed; Mass loss; Protein, total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) and total phosphorus (TP) accumulation; Extent of nitrogen limitation.
