Abstract

Upon the role of vegetation in sulfur storage in mangrove soils (Senegal). Preliminary results. Plant organs, plant residues at different degrees of decomposition, and the surface soil (0–5 cm) of a Rhizophora mangrove in Saloum Island (Sénégal) were analyzed for total C,N,S and amino acid content and for sulfur isotopical composition (δ 34S). These preliminary results emphasize the possible role of vegetation (roots and leaves) on S storage in mangrove soils.
