Organic matter decomposition across a coastal wetland landscape in Louisiana, U.S.A. (2014-2015)
October 24, 2017
Coastal wetlands store more carbon than most ecosystems globally. However, little is known about the mechanisms that control the loss of organic matter in coastal wetlands at the landscape scale, and how sea-level rise will impact this important ecological function.
