Abbreviation for Particulate Organic Matter. This is usually split into large (or sinking) POM and small (or suspended) POM. Large POM is typically greater than 50 m in diameter, sinks at rates around 100 m/day, and is usually sampled with sediment traps. It consists mainly of marine snow, zooplankton fecal pellets and intact organisms. Small POM is typically between about 1 and 50 m in diameter, sinks very slowly (if at all), and is sampled by filtering sea water. See Najjar (1991).

(Polyoxymethylene = acetal)---is a high performance engineering polymer. It is a highly crystalline thermoplastic material that has excellent dimensional stability, high tensile strength, modul of elasticity, flexural strength and toughness and excellent abrasion resistance. It also has more creep resistant and lower moisture absorption than Nylons and good resistance to solvents (except phenols). High gloss surfaces. Approved for use in the food industry.
