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 ArticleDOI

Dynamic exchanges between DOM and POM pools in coastal and inland aquatic ecosystems: A review

TL;DR: A unified conceptual model is proposed to describe all major dynamic exchange mechanisms on the basis of exergy theory to overcome the potential problems arising from a simple division of OM into dissolved versus particulate states and to further develop more sophisticated mathematic models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacterial reworking of terrigenous and marine organic matter in estuarine water columns and sediments

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantified the bacterial contribution to OM composition and diagenesis in the St. Lawrence system (Canada) using ultrafiltered dissolved, particulate and sedimentary organic matter (UDOM, POM and SOM).
Journal ArticleDOI

The dynamics of absorption coefficients of CDOM and particles in the St. Lawrence estuarine system: Biogeochemical and physical implications

TL;DR: The spectral slope ratio of CDOM absorption, defined as the ratio of the spectral slope between 275 and 295 nm to that between 350 and 400 nm, was confirmed to be an indicator of the source and molecular weight of CDO.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption of microplastic-derived organic matter onto minerals.

TL;DR: The adsorption isotherm model parameters for MP-DOM were comparable to those obtained from aquatic/terrestrial NOM, which suggests that plastic-derived DOM can interact with minerals as strongly as NOM.

The infra-red spectra of complex molecules

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a survey of research work in physics, physical sciences, and physical chemistry, focusing on physics, chemistry, physics, and biology. But they do not discuss their work in this paper.
Book

HUmus Chemistry Genesis, Composition, Reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analysis of organic matter in soil using NMR Spectroscopy and analytical pyrolysis, showing that organic matter is composed of nitrogen and ammonium.

Treatise on geochemistry

TL;DR: This extensively updated new edition of the widely acclaimed Treatise on Geochemistry has increased its coverage beyond the wide range of geochemical subject areas in the first edition, with five new volumes which include: the history of the atmosphere, geochemistry of mineral deposits, archaeology and anthropology, organic geochemistry and analytical geochemistry as discussed by the authors.
Book

Organic geochemistry of natural waters

E. M. Thurman
TL;DR: The first part of the book as mentioned in this paper is a general overview of the amount and general nature of dissolved organic carbon in natural waters, and the second part is a summary of the data that has accumulated from many disciplines over the last decade.
