Abstract
⺠Understanding decomposition is critically important for modeling climate change. ⺠Soil organisms are rarely considered in our understanding of decomposition. ⺠We test if pre-adaptation of soil organisms improves litter decomposition (HFA). ⺠Habitat-organism interaction may have been responsible for a negative HFA. ⺠Bacteria, fungi and mite data suggest ways to improve decomposition modeling.
