Tree species identity alters forest litter decomposition through long‐term plant and soil interactions in Patagonia, Argentina (2008, result): “This result is in accordance with the lack of response of litter decomposition to a increasing number of living plant species in artificially constructed grassland ecosystems (Hector et al. 2000; Knops et al. 2001; Knops et al. 2007).”
Nitrogen addition stimulates forest litter decomposition and disrupts species interactions in Patagonia, Argentina (2011, background): “…but studies aimed at the effects of plant species diversity and N addition have also shown synergistic effects on soil respiration (Madritch & Hunter, 2003), microbial composition and enzyme production (Chung et al., 2007), but with weak effects on litter decomposition (Knops et al., 2007).”
