Figure 1. Litter mass loss in small mesh (white bars) and large mesh (grey bars) litterbags, after winter decomposition in the pots and in the field, averaging for litter type. The results of the 2 pairwise tests are shown for each location (ns: p = 0.70, ***: p <0.001). The thick line corresponds to the median, the box to the first and third quartiles, the whiskers to the minimum and maximum values, and points to outliers.
