This study aimed to evaluate deposition and decomposition of litter and nutrient input in an area of eucalyptus plantation in top-sequence. It was verified significant contribution of the stratum leaves, what could be attributed to the age of the plantation. Regarding the rate of decomposition it was observed a decrease in the spring season at all sites. It was observed differences among sites related to top-sequence There was addition of nutrients as P, N and K, with a tendency for larger values of P in the top of the slope. The studied parameters reflect the different characteristics of the studied environmental growth conditions and their growth limitation and it suggest differences in the management of the areas.Downloads
