  1. 1. Dissolved organic matter in lakes : Chemical diversity and continuum of reactivity

    Author : Alina Mostovaya; Lars Tranvik; Colin Stedmon; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : dissolved organic matter; DOM; dissolved organic carbon; DOC; PARAFAC; reactivity continuum model; ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry; FT-ICR-MS; organic matter characterization; decomposition kinetics; baseline metabolism; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi; Biology with specialization in Limnology;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the largest pool of organic carbon in aquatic systems and an important component of the global carbon cycle. Large amounts of DOM are decomposed within lakes, resulting in fluxes of CO2 and CH4 to the atmosphere. READ MORE

  2. 2. Molecular-level dissolved organic matter dynamics in lakes : Constraints on reactivity and persistence

    Author : Anne Marie Kellerman; Lars J. Tranvik; Dolly N. Kothawala; Thorsten Dittmar; Robert G. M. Spencer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : dissolved organic matter; DOM; dissolved organic carbon; organic matter characterization; fluorescence; PARAFAC; molecular weight; mass spectrometry; FT-ICR-MS; boreal lakes; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a central component of the global carbon cycle. Thus, small changes to the amount of DOM imported, processed and produced within lakes can have a large effect on regional carbon budgets. In addition to being a vital energy source at the base of the aquatic food web, DOM is physico-chemically reactive. READ MORE

  3. 3. Lake Dissolved Organic Matter Quantity and Quality : Variability across Temporal and Spatial Scales

    Author : Roger André Müller; Gesa Weyhenmeyer; Emily Stanley; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dissolved organic matter; organic carbon; CDOM; lakes; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Surface waters receive large amounts of dissolved organic matter (DOM) via runoff from land. The DOM is rich in organic carbon that serves as an energy source for the aquatic biota. During uptake of this energy, aquatic organisms mineralize organic carbon. READ MORE

  4. 4. Dissolved Organic Matter from a colloidal perspective

    Author : Erika Andersson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dissolved organic matter; colloids; Microbial decomposition; hematite nanoparticles; soil; small angle scattering; light scattering; 1H NMR;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is considered the most bioavailable fraction of soil, and thus play a key role in the cycling of carbon. Because of its mobility, DOM also forms the connection between terrestrial and aquatic systems, and constitutes an important vector for nutrients and contaminants. READ MORE

  5. 5. Characterization of dissolved organic matter : An analytical challenge

    Author : Claudia Patriarca; Jonas Bergquist; Lars Tranvik; Jeffrey A. Hawkes; Jonathan Martin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kemi med inriktning mot analytisk kemi; Chemistry with specialization in Analytical Chemistry;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the prevalent form of organic carbon in most aquatic environments. It is an ultra-complex mixture that plays a crucial role in global carbon cycling. Despite its importance it is still poorly understood due to its extreme heterogeneity and intricacy. READ MORE
