detrital

Examples

• All

• The forest floor was covered in detrital material, including fallen leaves and decaying animals.

• All three plans protect and/or restore to varying degrees the same five riparian ecosystem functions: stream bank integrity, detrital nutrients, sediment filtration, shade, and recruitment of LWD.

• The contribution of harvested carbon to the detrital pool was outweighed by the decomposition and release of this pool to the atmosphere.

• These six classes of forest succession are closely related to important time intervals associated with rates of change in live and detrital carbon stores predicted by the LandCarb model.

• DNR's HCP for state forest lands also cites FEMAT to justify how it protects the detrital nutrient function.

• In the PNW region, existing forest management plans for private holdings call for cutting on short rotation lengths that will not permit living and detrital biomass to accumulate after harvest to anywhere near the levels of mature and old-growth forests.

• With relatively modest spectral resolution, researchers have begun to quantify near-surface constituents in the ocean such as chlorophyll, dissolved organic and detrital materials, and even particle-size distributions.

• Although replacing older forests with more vigorous young forests can increase sequestration by live carbon pools, decomposition of the large detrital pools after harvest greatly offsets gains in biomass by living pools for an extended period of time.

• Decomposed leaves and other plants contribute to the detrital layer, providing essential nutrients to the soil.
