Photochemical reactions contribute to the transformation of contaminants and
biogeochemically important substrates in environmental aquatic systems. Recent research …

Continental margin systems collectively receive and store vast amounts of organic carbon
(OC) derived from primary productivity both on land and in the ocean, thereby playing a …

Halogenated organic compounds, also termed organohalogens, were initially considered to
be of almost exclusively anthropogenic origin. However, over 5000 naturally synthesized …

Bromine (Br) is widely distributed through the lithosphere and hydrosphere, and its
chemistry in the environment is affected by natural processes and anthropogenic activities …

Zinc (Zn) is vital to marine organisms. Its active uptake by phytoplankton results in a
substantial depletion of dissolved Zn, and Zn bound to particulate organic matter …

Polyhalogenated carbazoles (PHCs) have been frequently detected in various environments
and have gained increasing attention due to their dioxin-like toxicity. In this study, 28 surface …

Salt marshes are sensitive highly productive habitats crucial for carbon cycling. This study
presents a comprehensive analysis of organic geochemical indicators and geochronology in …

Photochemical halogenation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) may represent an important
abiotic process for the formation of natural organobromine compounds (OBCs) and natural …

The present volume is the third in a trilogy that documents naturally occurring
organohalogen compounds, bringing the total number—from fewer than 25 in 1968—to …

Abstract Halogenated Organic Compounds (HOCs) are a class of refractory organic
compounds produced in large quantities in the ocean, and some compounds can even …
