Abstract
⺠We exposed dry grass and pine litter samples to UV radiation for 60 days. ⺠We found no direct weight loss under UV exposure. ⺠Litter samples did not become chemically more labile through UV exposure. ⺠There was no enhancement of subsequent microbial decomposition. ⺠Our findings conflict with field observations of UV effect on litter degradation.
