Summary: An elementary proof of a representation of a nonnegative submartingale in the form of a conditional mathematical expectation of an increasing stochastic process is given. Using this representation, a simplified proof of a decomposition of a positive submartingale into the sum of a martingale and an increasing natural process is provided.
