O estudo foi desenvolvido, entre os anos de 2013 e 2015, em um fragmento da Caatinga situado no munic?pio de Jo?o C?mara, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil, atrav?s de um conjunto de tr?s experimentos manipulativos em campo. Evidenciou-se que, no ecossistema estudado, a fotodegrada??o e seus efeitos indiretos afetaram o processo de decomposi??o, proporcionando, isoladamente, 24% da perda de massa e desempenhando papel similar ?quele da precipita??o (26%). Observou-se um papel aditivo da radia??o solar e da precipita??o no controle das taxas de decomposi??o anual da serrapilheira. As redu??es nos n?veis de precipita??o mostraram-se respons?veis por gerar impactos negativos nas taxas de decomposi??o da serrapilheira de at? 41,2%, nos cen?rios testados. Resta comprovado que, na ?rea de estudo, o processo de decomposi??o da serrapilheira n?o est? estruturado apenas por um processo biol?gico, mas, tamb?m, pelo processo abi?tico da fotodegrada??o. Por fim, os resultados desta tese alertam para poss?vel colapso no processo de decomposi??o da serrapilheira decorrente de eventuais redu??es de chuvas, e que esse efeito pode comprometer o funcionamento desse ecossistema. / The aim of this thesis is to understand the role of solar radiation and precipitation, as well as the effect of reducing this, on the decomposition of litter in an ecosystem in the Brazilian semiarid region. The study was conducted between the years 2013 and 2015 in a fragment of the Caatinga in the municipality of Jo?o C?mara, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, through a set of three manipulative field experiments. It had demonstrated that the photodegradation and its indirect effects affected the decomposition process, providing alone, 24% of the weight loss and plays a similar role to that of precipitation (26%). We observed an additive role of solar radiation and the precipitation in the control of annual litter decomposition rates. Reductions in the levels of rainfall proved to be responsible for generating negative impacts on litter decomposition rates of up to 41.2% in the tested scenarios. It remains proven that, in the study area, the process of decomposition of leaf litter is not structured only by a biological process, but also by abiotic photodegradation. Finally, the results of this thesis warn of possible collapse of the litter decomposition process due to possible reductions in rainfall which may undermine the functioning of this ecosystem.
