| Abstract: | Aims Litter is frequently buried in the soil in alpine grasslands due to grassland degradation, serious rodent infestation and frequent strong winds. However, the effects of various litter positions on litter decomposition rates and nutrient dynamics under nitrogen (N) enrichment in such areas remain unknown. |
| Keywords: | alpine grassland nitrogen enrichment litter position litter decomposition leaf litter traits nutrient release |
