The proceedings from this symposium contain an overview of the benthic ecosystem. The structure, population dynamics, and secondary production of benthic ecosystems are discussed in light of the role of detritus and nutrient cycling in the food chain. The twenty three articles of presentation are grouped by categories of secondary production, population studies, nutrient cycling, and detritus and are summarized and indexed with an abstract for each presentation.
