Productivity of mosses and organic matter accumulation in the litter of sphagnum larch forest in the permafrost zone
Productivity of the moss cover and necromass accumulation in the litter of a sphagnum larch forest have been estimated on the basis of tree age. It has been shown that the total carbon stock in the litter of a 100-year-old stand, including organic matter not destroyed by fire, exceeds the correspond...
