Toward A Model of Detritus Processing in a Woodland Stream

Abstract

A state—space model for the microbial and abiotic decomposition of detritus in a temperate zone woodland stream is developed. Detritus, defined as nonliving, particulate organic matter and its associated microbial populations, is classified according to particle size and extent of microbial colonization as reflected by community respiration. These categories form a matrix whose entries are detrital biomass; detritus processing in the stream is simulated using transition functions to move biomass through the categories. The model can be coupled to population models of stream invertebrates via removal of detritus from the matrix for detritivore feeding. Simulation results are presented and compared with field data.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
