Three replicate sites in each of three successional stages are being studied in upland and floodplain locations. Ten replicate samples of the forest floor were collected in each of the study sites. The 01 and 02 horizons were separated in each case. In addition to horizon and total biomass, structural organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and secondary plant chemical analysis will be conducted on these forest floor samples nitrogen carbon chemistry forest floor Biogeochemistry
