Exploring drivers of litter decomposition in a greening Arctic: results from a transplant experiment across a tree-line (2018)
Journal Article
Parker, T. C., Sanderman, J., Holden, R. D., Blume-Werry, G., Sjögersten, S., Large, D., Castro-Díaz, M., Street, L. E., Subke, J.-A., & Wookey, P. A. (2018). Exploring drivers of litter decomposition in a greening Arctic: results from a transplant experiment across a tree-line. Ecology, 99(10), 2284-2294. https://doi.org/10.1002/ecy.2442

Decomposition of plant litter is a key control over carbon (C) storage in the soil. The biochemistry of the litter being produced, the environment in which the decomposition is taking place, and the community composition and metabolism of the decompo...

Quality not quantity: organic matter composition controls of CO₂and CH₄fluxes in neotropical peat profiles (2016)
Journal Article
Hoyos-Santillan, J., Lomax, B. H., Large, D., Turner, B. L., Boom, A., Lopez, O. R., & Sjögersten, S. (2016). Quality not quantity: organic matter composition controls of CO₂and CH₄fluxes in neotropical peat profiles. Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 103, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.soilbio.2016.08.017

Tropical peatlands represent an important source of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄) to the atmosphere. However, we do not know where in the peat profile these gases are produced and how controlling factors, such as substrate quality, which can...
