Dissolved organic matter: biogeochemistry, dynamics, and environmental significance in soils

NS Bolan, DC Adriano, A Kunhikrishnan, T James… - Advances in …, 2011 - Elsevier
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is defined as the organic matter fraction in solution that

Contribution of dissolved organic matter to carbon storage in forest mineral soils

K Kalbitz, K Kaiser - Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is often considered the most labile portion of organic matter
in soil and to be negligible with respect to the accumulation of soil C. In this short review, we …

Long-term increases in surface water dissolved organic carbon: observations, possible causes and environmental impacts

CD Evans, DT Monteith, DM Cooper - Environmental pollution, 2005 - Elsevier
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in 22 UK upland waters have increased by
an average of 91% during the last 15 years. Increases have also occurred elsewhere in the …

Biodegradation of soil-derived dissolved organic matter as related to its properties

K Kalbitz, J Schmerwitz, D Schwesig, E Matzner - Geoderma, 2003 - Elsevier
Quantifying the contribution of dissolved organic matter (DOM) to C sequestration in soils
requires knowledge about extent and rate of its biodegradation. Since degradation …

D Gao, E Bai, Y Yang, S Zong, F Hagedorn - Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2021 - Elsevier
Enhanced frequency and intensity of freeze-thaw cycle (FTC) owing to global climate
change may influence soil carbon (C) and phosphorus (P) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems …

Dissolved organic carbon in terrestrial ecosystems: synthesis and a model

JC Neff, GP Asner - Ecosystems, 2001 - Springer
The movement of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) through soils is an important process for
the transport of carbon within ecosystems and the formation of soil organic matter. In some …

Stabilization of dissolved organic matter by sorption to the mineral soil

K Kalbitz, D Schwesig, J Rethemeyer… - Soil Biology and …, 2005 - Elsevier
The main process by which dissolved organic matter (DOM) is retained in forest soils is likely
to be sorption in the mineral horizons that adds to stabilized organic matter (OM) pools. The …

Dissolved organic matter in soil: challenging the paradigm of sorptive preservation

G Guggenberger, K Kaiser - Geoderma, 2003 - Elsevier
During the last decade, research in sedimentary systems led to the paradigm of sorptive
stabilization of organic matter (OM). Studies on soils also show that sorptive interactions …

Simple method to enable the high resolution determination of total free amino acids in soil solutions and soil extracts

DL Jones, AG Owen, JF Farrar - Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2002 - Elsevier
Amino acids, either in a free or polymeric state, represent a significant addition of N to most
ecosystems and therefore comprise a key pool in the soil nitrogen cycle. The ability of some …
