Note(s): This study determined the rate at which nitrogen accumulated in seaweeds is released during decomposition and the effect of temperature on their rates of decomposition and nitrogen release. Gracilaria verrucosa and Ulva lactuca decomposed rapidly in outdoor mesocosms. Ulva, but not Gracilaria, became nitrogen-enriched during decomposition.
