Abstract:
Litter decomposition of Graffenrieda leaves was measured at the 2000 and 1000m sites. NaCl was applied every week, and total litter mass loss was determined after 6 months. The independent effects of fauna and litter were determined via diffeent mesh sizes.

Description
:
At each elevational site 10 independent plots were selected, and litterbags buried approximately with 1m distance, taking care that sodium treatments were on the lower positions.
