Detrital Processing

Detrital Processing is a biogeochemical process within pond ecology that involves the microbial and physical decomposition of organic detritus into simpler compounds, distinguishing it from primary production and nutrient cycling by specifically mediating the transformation and transference of non-living particulate organic matter through the food web.
