Mixed Litter Decomposition

Mixed Litter Decomposition is a ecological process in which plant litter from multiple species or functional types decomposes in combination, exhibiting decomposition dynamics that differ from those of individual litter types due to species interactions, chemical complementarity, or microenvironmental modification.
