Rainfall distribution variability controls surface but not belowground litter decomposition in a semi-arid shrubland by Yulin Li, Li Cheng, Honglin Yang, Rui Zhang, Zhiying Ning

“…We observed stronger synergistic effect for belowground litter mixture relative to surface litter mixture of the two shrubs, especially in the hotter months over the 5-month incubation.DiscussionThese findings support that rainfall variability in terms of distribution pattern rather than in the amount controls the litter decomposition on the soil surface in the semi-arid shrubland. Meanwhile, soil burial or litter mixing have greater effects on litter decomposition, individually or jointly. …”
