Abstract
âºSpartina alterniflora and S. densiflora produce the same amount of detritus. âºS. alterniflora detritus is of better quality and thus has larger decay rates. âºS. alterniflora detritus has larger marsh sediment trapped litter. âºBoth plants are probably exporting the same amount of detritus to the estuary waters. âºS. alterniflora detritus is probably more profitable to the estuaries' food webs.
