Despite our growing understanding of the global carbon cycle, scientific consensus on the
drivers and mechanisms that control dissolved organic carbon (DOC) turnover in aquatic …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is recognized for its importance in freshwater ecosystems,
but historical reliance on DOM quantity rather than indicators of DOM composition has led to …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an important role in carbon cycling within inland
surface waters. Under sunlight irradiation, DOM undergoes complete photooxidation to …

CO2 emissions from inland surface waters to the atmosphere are almost as large as the net
carbon transfer from the atmosphere to Earth's land surface. This large flux is supported by …

Aquatic dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a crucial component of the global carbon cycle,
and the extent to which DOM escapes mineralization is important for the transport of organic …

The North Temperate Lakes Long-Term Ecological Research site includes seven lakes in
northern Wisconsin that vary in hydrology, trophic status, and landscape position. We …

Methylmercury (MeHg) uptake by phytoplankton represents a key step in determining the
exposure risks of aquatic organisms and human beings to this potent neurotoxin …

Lakes in the boreal region have been recognized as the biogeochemical hotspots, yet many
questions regarding the regulators of organic matter processing in these systems remain …

Here, we explore the interaction between hydrology and the reactivity of allochthonous
dissolved organic carbon (DOC alloch) in determining the potential of DOC alloch to …

The molecular composition and origin has recently been demonstrated to play a critical role
in the persistence of organic matter in lake water, but it is unclear to what degree chemical …
