Biodégradation : Dans les sols, ensemble des phénomènes biologiques (micro-organismes et enzymes, faune du sol) qui aboutissent à la décomposition des débris végétaux et des substances humiques en CO2,H2O,NH3 (minéralisation). La vitesse de biodégradation varie avec l'activité biologique qui transforme en humus des débris végétaux annuels (litières), très rapidement dans les humus actifs du type mull, ou très lentement dans les humus bruts ou mor (terre de bruyère). 3, record 1, French, - vitesse%20de%20biod%C3%A9gradation
