Effects of Carpobrotus edulis invasion on main litter and soil characteristics in backdune and rocky coastal habitats with oceanic climate.

[Background and aims] Carpobrotus edulis invades coastal areas throughout the world, decreasing plant diversity and hampering restoration efforts by changing soil properties. Some of its effects on soils are known but there is a knowledge gap about the effects in rocky areas and micronutrients that...

Resumo:[Background and aims] Carpobrotus edulis invades coastal areas throughout the world, decreasing plant diversity and hampering restoration efforts by changing soil properties. Some of its effects on soils are known but there is a knowledge gap about the effects in rocky areas and micronutrients that we aimed to fill for dunes and rocky habitats with temperate-humid climate.
