Abstract

Direct stochastic relations between organic matter destruction in the water column and the rate of substance sedimentation onto reservoir bed, as well as the correlation between plankton primary production and the rate of substance sedimentation onto the beds of lakes and reservoirs are discussed. The vital activity of bacterial biomass colonizing mineral particles as the latter settle onto the bottom is asserted to be the mechanism forming the aforesaid relations.
