Black carbon (BC) is produced by incomplete combustion of biomass by wildfires and
burning of fossil fuels. BC is environmentally persistent over centuries to millennia …

Biochar is an emerging, cost-effective, and renewable carbonaceous material with abundant
functional groups and tuneable mesoporous structure, showing a promising performance in …

Advances in spectroscopic techniques have led to an increase in the use of optical
properties (absorbance and fluorescence) to assess dissolved organic matter (DOM) …

Singlet oxygen (1O2) is a reactive oxygen species produced in sunlit waters via energy
transfer from the triplet states of natural sensitizers. There has been an increasing interest in …

Trillions of plastic fragments are afloat at sea, yet they represent only 1–2% of the plastics
entering the ocean annually. The fate of the missing plastic and its impact on marine life …

Marine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) exhibits a spectrum of reactivity, from very fast
turnover of the most bioavailable forms in the surface ocean to long-lived materials …

Pyrogenic carbon (PyC; includes soot, char, black carbon, and biochar) is produced by the
incomplete combustion of organic matter accompanying biomass burning and fossil fuel …

The link between composition and reactivity of dissolved organic matter (DOM) is central to
understanding the role aquatic systems play in the global carbon cycle; yet, unifying …

The purpose of this review is to highlight progress in unraveling carbon cycling dynamics
across the continuum of landscapes, inland waters, coastal oceans, and the atmosphere …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a master variable in aquatic systems. Modern
fluorescence techniques couple measurements of excitation emission matrix (EEM) spectra …
