Abiotic Components
The abiotic components of an ecosystem are all of the nonliving elements. They include the water, the air, the temperature and the rocks and minerals that make up the soil. Abiotic components of an ecosystem might include how much rain falls on it, whether it is fresh water or salt water, how much sun it gets or how often it freezes and thaws. The biotic components of the ecosystem both live on and interact with the abiotic components.
Decomposers and Nutrient Cycling
Decomposers are the living component of the ecosystem that breaks down waste material and dead organisms. Examples of decomposers include earthworms, dung beetles and many species of fungi and bacteria. They perform a vital recycling function, returning nutrients incorporated into dead organisms to the soil where plants can take them up again. In this process they also harvest the last of the sunlight energy initially absorbed by producers. Decomposers represent the final step in many of the cyclical ecosystem processes.
