Cadaver Decomposition Island
- When a body is buried directly in the soil, then it is subject to decomposition by insects and microorganisms.
<span>- </span>During this process, a self-digestion of the cells occurs as well as anaerobic decomposition of animal proteins resulting in a release of various chemical components.
<span>- </span>This nutrient-rich fluid is trapped in the soil matrix for a long period of time resulting in the formation of Cadaver Decomposition Island
<span>- The formation of Cadaver Decomposition Island is associated with increased microbial biomass and activity.</span>
