Leaf and root litter decomposition is discontinued at high altitude tropical montane rainforests contributing to carbon sequestration

We investigated how altitude affects the decomposition of leaf and root litter in the Andean tropical montane rainforest of southern Ecuador, that is, through changes in the litter quality between altitudes or other site‐specific differences in microenvironmental conditions. Leaf litter from three a...
