Fluorescence spectroscopy coupled with parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) has been
widely used to characterize dissolved organic matter (DOM). Characterization is based on …

An online repository of published organic fluorescence spectra has been developed, which
can be searched for quantitative matches with any set of unknown spectra. It fills a critical …

Organic matter (OM) causes many problems in drinking water treatment. It is difficult to

Understanding the dynamics of organic matter (OM) and the roles in global and local carbon
cycles is challenging to the fields of environmental sciences and biogeochemistry. The …

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration and chromophoric dissolved organic matter
(CDOM) parameters were measured over a range of discharge in 30 US rivers, covering a …
