Abstract: 9711793 Lopez Deposit feeders play several important roles in determining whether organic material is demineralized or buried. These animals function to make surfaces available for microbial growth and move particles both horizontally and vertically within the seabed at a pace that far exceeds sedimentation.

This project will test and refine present models of bacterial associations within the gut of sediment deposit feeders. Bacteria ingested into the gut and exposed to lytic activity of gut enzymes, both in terms of space and time, will be examined in the two deposit feeders, Arenicola marina and Amphitrite johnsonii.
