Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined fine roots accumulation and decomposition rates and nitrogen fixation ability for major mangrove species of Pohnpei Island in Micronesia and Iriomote Island. Fine roots accumulation rates were 40 to 50 t/ha/year in Pohnpei except inland sites of three species, which were around 25 t/ha, and 4 to 9 t/ha/year in Iriomote. Root litter residual ratios for a year were 40 to 85 % in Pohnpei except seaward site of Rhizophora stylosa, which was 8 %, and 50 to 60 % in Iriomote. Activation energy of nitrogen-fixing reaction was higher in rhizosphere than non-rhizosphere for all investigated trees. Nitrogen fixation activity in Pohnpei was highest compared with other regions.
