## Abstract The decomposition of leaf and steam litter of reed (__P. australis__) was measured both in the field and in the laboratory. The breakdown rates, the total carbon and the stable carbon isotope dynamics of reed litter were determined. The stable carbon isotope ratios of isolated humic sub
