Derive processing rates (-k) using a negative exponential model. Include graphs for species 2 through 10 similar or identical to what I have provided for species 1. Re-recreating the graph species 1 with an identical equation will ensure you are doing this correctly. The process is identical to how you derived leaf retention rates.
