The relative abundance of different types of this substance is affected by the CCD. A prominentexample of this substance in the deep ocean is red from oxidized iron. The inclusion of this substancedefines turbidity currents. In the neritic zone, ice rafting is a significant contributor to this substance.Manganese nodules are a small but significant portion of this substance. This substance can be classified ashydrogenous, lithogenous or biogenous; the latter constitutes the majority of it and is usually derived fromradiolarans, foraminifera, coccolithophores, and diatoms.
