Over the last 30 years, the optical property community has shifted from conducting dissolved
organic matter (DOM) measurements on new complex mixtures in natural and engineered …

Polar ice sheets hold a significant pool of the world's carbon reserve and are an integral
component of the global carbon cycle. Yet, organic carbon composition and cycling in these …

Although subglacial aquatic environments are widespread beneath the Antarctic ice sheet,
subglacial biogeochemistry is not well understood, and the contribution of subglacial water …

Organic matter (OM) acts as a source of carbon and is strongly implicated in biogeochemical
processes, such as metal complexation and redox reactions. To illustrate the effects of OM …

Glaciers and ice sheets are the second largest freshwater reservoir in the global hydrologic
cycle, and the onset of global climate warming has necessitated an assessment of their …

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) plays a fundamental role in the biogeochemistry of glacier
ecosystems. However, the specific sources of glacier DOC remain unresolved. To assess …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) exported in glacier meltwater influences downstream
biogeochemical processes, and climate warming may increase the meltwater DOM flux. In …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems and is derived from
various inputs that control its turnover. Glaciers and ice sheets are the second largest water …

The seasonal characteristics of fluorescent components in chromophoric dissolved organic
matter (CDOM) for lakes in the semiarid region of Northeast China were examined by …

Terrestrial icy environments have been found to preserve organic material and contain
habitable niches for microbial life. The cryosphere of other planetary bodies may therefore …
