The influence of stand age on benthic decomposition and recycling of organic matter in managed mangrove forests of Malaysia
Decomposition of sediment organic matter was examined in relation to forest age in 2-, 15- and 60-year old, managed Rhizophora apiculata (Blume) stands in the Matang Mangrove Forest Reserve of peninsular Malaysia.
