Dear Hubbard Brook colleagues:
I have attached a paper just published (available online) by Ecosystems. It shows an increase in late-stage litter decomposition in the calcium-treated watershed 1 compared to a control site. We think this is interesting because it provides a mechanism for the decrease in forest floor and soil carbon and nitrogen pools in W1 observed by Chris Johnson et al. (SSSAJ 2014).
Best regards,
Gary
