Aerobic microbial activity that requires oxygen is then able to break down still other pollutants.
In this case, microbial activity acts may promote the degradation of heavy oils into lighter ones.
As a consequence of the microbial activity (energy producing reaction):
The paper doesn't go into much detail on that- it's more of a "Whoa- that's some significant microbial activity.
Further, microbial activity of the food materials favor with the moisture availability in the food.
The grave should be shallow enough to allow microbial activity similar to that found in composting.
The microbial activity of the compost is greater if it is aerated during this period.
In addition, warmer soil temperatures after fire events lead to greater microbial activity.
This increases the amount of oxygen in the soil and aids in microbial activity.
Studies have shown a low anti microbial activity which is enhanced by additives.
