Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the distribution of organic matter in a desert shrub community. The author, a range scientist, examines the accumulation and turnover rates of organic material, focusing on the relationship between above and below-ground biomass. The study reveals that a significant portion of the total organic matter is found below the ground, with roots comprising a substantial part of this subterranean reserve. The author notes that the slow decomposition of litter is a characteristic of arid climates, leading to a high proportion of dead matter in the above-ground environment. The findings contribute to our understanding of desert ecosystems and the dynamics of organic matter accumulation and turnover in these unique environments.
