Decomposition Rates of Surficial and Buried Organic Matter and the Lability of Soil Carbon Stocks Across a Large Tropical Seagrass Landscape

The paradigm for understanding the accumulation of organic carbon in vegetated coastal “blue carbon” habitats holds that burial of organic carbon ( C org ) slows decomposition and leads to stability of carbon stocks. Further, it is generally assumed that the presence of the plant communities contrib...
