The ratios of organic carbon, nitrogen, and hydro gen were determined in a core sample of recent sediments. The vertical distribution of the ratios in the core sample suggests that a relationship between microbiological decomposition rates of organic carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen in sedi ments may be of the following order: Org.
