The biogeochemical cycling of soil organic matter (SOM) plays a central role in regulating
soil health, water quality, carbon storage, and greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, many …

Natural organic matter (NOM) is a complex mixture of biogenic molecules resulting from the
deposition and transformation of plant and animal matter. It has long been recognized that …

Natural dissolved organic matter (DOM) comprises a broad range of dissolved organic
molecules in aquatic systems and is among the most complex molecular mixtures known …

In the context of environmental plastic pollution, it is still under debate if and how the
“plastisphere”, a plastic-specific microbial community, emerges. In this study, we tested the …

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 …

Increasing number of application of ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry (UHR-MS) to
natural organic matter (NOM) characterization requires an efficient and accurate formula …

Wildfires in forested watersheds dramatically alter stored and labile soil organic matter
(SOM) pools and the export of dissolved organic matter (DOM). Ecosystem recovery after …

Black carbon (BC) is a recalcitrant form of organic carbon (OC) produced by landscape fires.
BC is an important component of the global carbon cycle because, compared to unburned …

Fourier ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT‐ICR MS), one of the state‐of‐the‐art
ultrahigh‐resolution techniques, is widely used in dissolved organic matter (DOM) research …

In the mostly pristine Congo Basin, agricultural land-use change has intensified in recent
years. One potential and understudied consequence of this deforestation and conversion to …
