How Do Decomposers Different From Detritivores Energy Flow?

Energy flow? - how do decomposers different from detritivores

In a forest close to 50 years:
The incident solar energy = 2 × 106 kJ m-2.
PPM = 43 470 kJ m-2 y-1
NPP = 19 560 kJ m-2 y-1
14 330 kJ m-2 and-1 pass from autotrophs the scavengers and decomposers in the form of leaves, branches are dead roots, etc. herbivores (consume primarily caterpillars) 170 kJ m-2 y-1 and 120 kJ m - 2 Y -1 goes herbivores detritivores and decomposers in offaeces form. A variety of carnivores, herbivores consume various disposal.

1. How do I calculate how much energy is lost from the ecosystem?
