A synthesis of <i>Sphagnum</i> litterbag experiments: initial leaching losses bias decomposition rate estimates by H. Teickner, H. Teickner, E. Pebesma, K.-H. Knorr

“…<p>Our knowledge of the magnitude and controls of <i>Sphagnum</i> decomposition rates is derived to a large extent from litterbag experiments that do not explicitly consider initial leaching losses. Previous research on vascular plants suggests that decomposition rate (<span class="inline-formula"><i>k</i>₀</span>) estimates from litterbag experiments are biased when initial leaching losses (<span class="inline-formula"><i>l</i>₀</span>) are ignored. …”
