Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescence tracking of dissolved and particulate organic matter quality in a river-dominated estuary.

TL;DR: Modeling base-extracted particulate and dissolved organic matter quality in the Neuse River Estuary before and after passage of Hurricane Irene indicated that advection of pore water DOM from surface sediments into overlying waters could increase the autochthonous quality of DOM in shallow microtidal estuaries.
Journal Article

The record of global change in mid-Cretaceous (Barremian-Albian) sections from the Sierra Madre, Northeastern Mexico

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the record, timing, and extent of Oceanic Anoxic Events (OAEs) in Mexico and other areas, and determine the relationship between these events and the global burial of organic material using carbon isotopes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissolved organic matter composition and photoreactivity in prairie lakes of the U.S.Great Plains

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated 27 prairie saline lake ecosystems in the Northern and Central Great Plains of the United States using absorbance, fluorescence, lignin concentration, and stable C isotope values.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical and optical changes in freshwater dissolved organic matter exposed to solar radiation

TL;DR: In this article, the chemical and optical changes in the dissolved organic matter (DOM) from two freshwater lakes and a Sphagnum bog after exposure to solar radiation were studied, and the results suggest both photooxidation of allochthonous DOM in the epilimnion and autotrophic production of DOM by bacteria in the hypolimnions of two lakes in northeastern Pennsylvania.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linking the chemical and optical properties of dissolved organic matter in the Baltic-North Sea transition zone to differentiate three allochthonous inputs

TL;DR: The results from four cruises undertaken from August 2006 to February 2007 are presented in this article, where the relationship between the optical (absorption and excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and dissolved lignin concentrations were determined and carbon stable isotope values (δ 13 C) of DOM were also used to evaluate DOM sources.
