Marine Biology
Decomposition is the process by which organic matter is broken down into simpler substances, primarily by the action of microorganisms, fungi, and detritivores. This process plays a crucial role in nutrient cycling within ecosystems, especially in marine environments, where various organisms contribute to breaking down dead organic material, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem for use by living organisms.
