Glossary D
"Death" in the environmental context refers to the end of life for individual organisms or the extinction of species, both of which play natural roles in ecological systems. On an individual level, the death of organisms contributes to nutrient cycling, providing resources for other living beings and influencing population dynamics and community structure. On a broader scale, species extinction can significantly impact ecosystems, reducing biodiversity, altering habitat structures, and affecting the functions and services ecosystems provide.
A Debris is any solid material exceeding a 60 mm particle size that is intended for disposal and that is a manufactured object, or plant or animal matter, or natural geologic material.
