3.2 Water nutrient content after
decomposition
Comparing the three litter mixtures, A. corniculatum vs. K. obovata were lower in all the water nutrients than corniculatum vs. A. marina (P = 0.01 for NH4-N; P = 0.03 for N; P = 0.71 for PO3-P; P = 0.009 for P) and A. corniculatum vs. S. alterniflora (P = 0.11 for NH4-N; P = 0.13 for N; P = 0.95 for PO3-P; P = 0.59 for P) (Fig. 3).
