Examples of humus

• The soil is continually moist and covered with a thick layer of leaves and decaying humus.

• These results indicate that humus depth has a larger effect in determining local spatial distribution of tree species in heath forests than relative elevation.

• Nutrient release from litter and humus in coniferous forest soils - a mini review.

• The degree of influence on the spatial distribution of species, however, appears to be different between humus depth and relative elevation.

• The results on bryophyte cover and thickness of humus-bryophyte layer supported the expectations.

• Pitch a bit of humus to produce this?

• Spatial associations with soil nutrients were weak for necromass thickness, but clear for humus.

• Drainage disturbances were deeper most likely because the thicker layer of humus and loose soil at these sites made digging easier.
