Yet bacteria utilize about half of the organic matter derived from oceanic primary production6 by varied strategies, including attack on dead and living diatoms by using hydrolytic enzymes7,8, and could adventitiously hasten silica dissolution by degrading the organic matrix which protects diatom frustules from dissolution9,10.
We conclude that the displacement of organic matter derived from the lake is an important external source for the microbial processes in these soils at a landscape scale.
My own bias in this matter derives from having advanced the word "sonicky" for what we might also call the kinephonic aspects of language: the combination of how words sound and how they are formed, kinetically, by the oral apparatus.
The unorthodox subject matter, derived from a story by Nikolai Gogol and redolent of the writer's uniquely Russian brand of humor, may formerly have kept theaters at bay but no more.
In addition, a good linear relationship was found between the temperature of maximum evolution of volatile matter derived from the DTG curve and the characteristic temperatures indicating the beginning, end and maximum value of the fluid stage of coal.
Concentrations of TOC with low δ13Corg values could be interpreted to represent a change in the proportion of organic matter derived from land plants versus oceans25,26.
The presence of residual cell-free fetal matter derived from previous pregnancies and the technical challenges associated with the amount of fetal DNA in early pregnancy which is usually less than 20% of the total DNA circulating freely are investigated here (Barrett et al. 2011; Lo et al. 1998).
The peak of DIP at the entrance of Laguna Macapule preceded that at El Tortugón before the rainy season, suggesting that diatom blooms controlled phosphorus levels, subsequent input of organic matter derived from the diatoms, and fast regeneration of phosphorus compounds.
The addition of exogenous organic matter derived from organic wastes has been widely used to restore semiarid, degraded soils, favoring the development of plant cover.
Based on the scenarios above (see Fig. 3), we also predict that clonal plants themselves create spatial heterogeneity of resources, for instance through the litter and soil organic matter derived from them.
Meanwhile, another isotopic ratio, that between the light and heavy forms of carbon in organic matter derived from marine algae, reflects the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere when the algae were alive.
