• Early stage litter decomposition across biomes 

      Ika, Djukic; Kepfer-Rojas, Sebastian; Schmidt, Inger Kappel; Larsen, Klaus Steenberg; Beier, Claus; ... more authors ( Elsevier , 2018 , Article)
      Through litter decomposition enormous amounts of carbon is emitted to the atmosphere. Numerous large-scale decomposition experiments have been conducted focusing on this fundamental soil process in order to understand the ...
    • Effects of Climate and Atmospheric Nitrogen Deposition on Early to Mid-Term Stage Litter Decomposition Across Biomes 

      Kwon, Taeoh; Shibata, Hideaki; Kepfer-Rojas, Sebastian; Schmidt, Inger K.; Larsen, Klaus S.; ... more authors ( Frontiers Media , 2021 , Article)
      Litter decomposition is a key process for carbon and nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems and is mainly controlled by environmental conditions, substrate quantity and quality as well as microbial community abundance ...
    • Reading tea leaves worldwide: Decoupled drivers of initial litter decomposition mass-loss rate and stabilization 

      Sarneel, Judith M.; Hefting, Mariet M.; Sandén, Taru; van den Hoogen, Johan; Routh, Devin; ... more authors ( Wiley , 2024 , Other)
      The breakdown of plant material fuels soil functioning and biodiversity. Currently, process understanding of global decomposition patterns and the drivers of such patterns are hampered by the lack of coherent large-scale ...
