The Effects of Nutrient Enrichment on the Decomposition of Belowground Organic Matter in a Sagittaria Lancifolia - Dominated Oligohaline Marsh
Wetlands improve water quality through sedimentation and the uptake of excess nutrients. As human population increases in the coastal zone, wetlands receive greater nutrient inputs. These additional nutrients may accelerate microbial activity, leading to faster decomposition rates. This decompositi...
