Why is decomposition important in a forest ecosystem?
If there was no such thing as decomposition in a forest ecosystem, then the forest floor would fill up with dead bodies and trees. This would decrease the carrying capacity of the forest, or, in other words cause the living populations to decrease. There would be little room for the trees to survive, and there would be less habitat space for the animal populations, and little to no space for any sort of succession (succession is the process in which a destroyed environment so to speak grows back.) Also, the nutrients released from the decomposed compounds help fuel the trees which produce oxygen. Without these nutrients, there would be even less of a tree population. Long story short, without the force of decomposition in a forest ecosystem, it would, on the long run be challenging for the ecosystem to support life.
