The ecology of sediment bacteria and hypolimnetic catabolism in lakes : the relative importance of autochthonous and allochthonous organic matter
Microbial metabolic activity in the hypolimnia and sediments of lakes drives the recycling of organic matter both through mineralization and the production of microbial biomass, which may be utilized by grazers. A correction factor was developed based on the water content of sediment samples that co...
